Not wanting to recompile my kernel, I've tried to kldload the if_xl module. When I load the if_xl module "by hand", all is well : the miibus is also loaded and everything's fine (xl0 appears in ifconfig -a ...) When I try to load the if_xl and miibus modules via the loader, the loader spins in : "/modules/miibus.ko text=XXXX data=YYYY syms=[ZZZZ] loading required module 'if_miibus' " .... at infinitum my loader.conf : # -- sysinstall generated deltas -- # userconfig_script_load="YES" miibus_load="YES" # miibus support, needed for some drivers if_xl_load="YES" My system version : pc-bsd103% uname -a FreeBSD pc-bsd103.ZZZZ.telspace.alcatel.fr 4.0-20000214-CURRENT FreeBSD 4.0-2 0000214-CURRENT #1: Mon Feb 21 18:36:37 CET 2000 herbelot@pc-bsd103.ZZZZ. telspace.alcatel.fr:/usr/src/sys/compile/P5-ep i386 pc-bsd103% Net result : one more kernel recompile (this time, it works !)
