The error message in question is printed by sysinstall, and appears when a user starts up from the 4.7-RC1 install CDROM. Some time ago, sysinstall gained the ability to load kernel modules from the mfsroot image; this lets us strip more drivers out of the (always cramped) boot kernel. In revision 1.3.2.5 of src/release/i386/ driver.conf, aac was removed from the kernel on the CDROMs and moved to mfsroot image. (You probably know this already but it doesn't affect GENERIC at all...just the kernel on the media the user installs from.) So...I was looking through src/sys/modules/aac/Makefile. Does aac really have a dependency on the linux module, and could that cause this problem? (Unfortunately there are no other error messages or diagnostics on sysinstall's debugging VTY. sysinstall is able to load other kernel modules before and after aac.ko without incident.) Thanks!
