Hi Chuck, I was wondering if this is still a WIP. I am seeing that modules are built with-in /sys/modules. This breaks using a read-only /usr/src, and causes file polution for ``cvs up''. Worse if you build kernel FOO and a week later build kernel BAR; you are unable to ``cd /sys/compile/FOO ; make install'' as you don't have the modules that match kernel FOO any longer. Of course we never did, but the move of the modules from world builds to kernel builds was to get around such issues. It really would be better to build modules with-in /sys/compile/<NAME>/modules. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
