Have you verified this is a problem? On my test box that has: defaults/loader.conf:module_path="/boot/modules" # Set the module search path and was booted: [...] /boot/kernel/accf_http.ko text=0xb84 data=0x150+0x4 syms=[0x4+0x310+0x4+0x334] Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any other key for command prompt. Booting [/boot/kernel/kernel]... (i.e. normal boot process w/ no interaction) My sysctl returns: -bash-2.05b$ sysctl kern.module_path kern.module_path: /boot/kernel;/boot/modules Please include complete information of the breakage that this change is suppose to cause. -- John-Mark Gurney Voice: +1 415 225 5579 "All that I will do, has been done, All that I have, has not."
