I'm not going to do your homework for you. :) Try it and find out for yourself. I will tell you that given that rc.d/kld runs right after the disks are mounted means that (unless you are netbooting) you can put just about everything that isn't directly related to mounting your disks in kld_list. Beyond that, you just need to experiment on your own. Good luck, Doug -- Nothin' ever doesn't change, but nothin' changes much. -- OK Go Breadth of IT experience, and depth of knowledge in the DNS.
