I am trying to build FreeBSD update, STABLE branch, and buildkernel apparently snagged on ndis, which I don't want to do without. According to "man ndis", I need in kernel config
options NDISAPI
device ndis
device wlan
which I have:
device wlan # 802.11 support
options NDISAPI # This is in the hope of enabling Hiro USB wireless adapter
device ndis
Error message, final lines of buildkernel log file, are

Now Ian Lepore suggests adding to kernel config
device pccard
So I uncommented the device lines for cbb, pccard and cardbus even though my computer has no PCMCIA. I don't know why, this ought to be documented.
So the kernel apparently built but would not install due to something related to auditdistd.
UPDATING file refers to auditdistd(8) as if it were a man page, but I could find it nowhere, not even the FreeBSD online man pages.
I ran mergemaster -p but didn't want to let it destroy my master.passwd, so I would up adding auditdistd user line with vi editor. But the kernel still wouldn't install. Now I am at an impasse. Maybe wait until 9.1 is really released?
