Of course, this should really be rolled into the loader so that the sequence is more like this: Would you like to load any additional kernel modules (y/n)? y Please insert modules floppy and press return: Please insert mfsroot floppy and press return: That way there's no need for a deviceRescan() and the user doesn't have to remember to invoke the Load KLD menu item before selecting an Installation type. I remember some german(?) guy even writing a bunch of FICL primitives for doing those sorts of UIs.
