  sysnewconfig990503-kld990505test6.patch.gz ... 
	patch from newconfig CVS repository at the date of 1999/05/03
  dconfig990503.tar.gz
	new `config.new'

Previously, cfdata was from the array in ioconf.c generated by
config.new. In this version, cfdata is made at boot time by
newioconf.c which is generated by dconfig.

Driver modules xl, ne, dp8390nic, rtl80x9, ne_pci and ne_isa for
dynamic configuration is in sys/modules. 

`dconfig(8)' is modified from
  http://home.jp.freebsd.org/~furuta/dconf.tar.gz
This is used to generate newioconf.[ch] at compile time and load
drivers at run time. Interfaces are temporal. Extract in the directory 
usr.sbin. You cannot compile the kernel source with
sysnewconfig990503-kld990505test6.patch.gz without dconfig.


1) To compile a kernel, instead of config.new NEWCONF, use
	dconfig --compile=NEWCONF

2) To load/unload drivers, in /dev directory, do
	mknod config c 80 0
   For example, to load `ne3 at pci0 dev ? func ?', do, 
	dconfig --load --driver=ne --unit=3 --bus=pci --busunit=0 --locator=-1,-1 --flags=0
   To unload, 
	dconfig --unload --driver=ne --unit=3 --bus=pci --busunit=0 --locator=-1,-1 --flags=0

   To load/unload `ne4 at isa0 iobase 0x280 irq 9' do,
	dconfig --load --driver=ne --unit=4 --bus=isa --busunit=0 --locator=640,0,0,0,9,-1,-1,0,1,0 --flags=0
	dconfig --unload --driver=ne --unit=4 --bus=isa --busunit=0 --locator=640,0,0,0,9,-1,-1,0,1,0 --flags=0
