[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi, It appears that recently (~6 months) loader can no longer load compressed kernel objects (gzipped) . This regression is present on both FreeBSD-8 and - Current. This can be reproduced by doing: # cd /boot/kernel ; gzip -9 unionfs.ko (Choose option 6 from loader and enter: load unionfs) I have experienced this on both i386 and amd64. It appears that loader can handle a compressed generic kernel (and maybe other modules).
