I think you first need to unload the preloaded kernel to load another.

Beware that this will also unload all modules that have been loaded by then. --gt --wac7ysb48OaltWcw Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iQEVAwUBO4FVc77hO6NLB/FvAQEf8Af7BmhiuorxhM06dM1Z2MfNskG1+7rgwDYP /SZS7z4bn0Sl+OawQHplnRu7ebBQ9fZEV9Lm9sV4OFqrhkxXKQL+DsRekDT7uSh3 Gxd6CHkR6/Dew+ecUJtj+sCCxqyhCAbeO0vHvefHo4tnIpVst5FpXGHviQ7GV1Ia mpm1GCXwxDKbV1u1j13B9GXe8Mg9HZnPpqYIg480hUERXJWFS70z32wEHmOKKhcn BQjB8FSlA3tsluCJnVqPUhGww56RduBeuZ5yjWTcv/i8342X2xRgWNPTrLm4wvHG 6wH+oLcNU6kJ29wmtjHlxttxfY6hhVssBStHN10smANJ/mEBsAUm7w== =XZ1c -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --wac7ysb48OaltWcw-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
