Here it is: http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/troubleshoot.html#CALCRU-NEGATIVE > 2) What has become out of the /modules directory? The /usr/src/UPDATING file says: : 20000905: : The boot loader has been updated. The new default kernel is : now /boot/kernel/kernel.ko. The new default module location : is /boot/kernel. : : You *MUST* upgrade your boot loader and kernel at the same time. : The easiest way to do this is to do the buildworld/buildkernel/ : installkernel/installworld dance. : : Furthermore, you are urged to delete your old /modules directory : before booting the new kernel, since kldload will find stale : modules in that directory instead of finding them in the correct : path, /boot/kernel. The most common complaint that this cures : is that the linux module crashes your machine after the update. : : if [ ! -d /boot/kernel.old ]; then : mv /modules.old /boot/kernel.old : chflags noschg /kernel.old : mv /kernel.old /boot/kernel.old/kernel.ko : chflags schg /boot/kernel.old/kernel.ko : fi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
