With the latest kernel/module restructuring, the kernel is now installed as /boot/kernel/kernel.ko. So, basically, if one opts to _not_ build modules w/kernel as per /etc/make.conf, no modules are installed in /boot/kernel other than the kernel itself, kernel.ko. This means that various modules will not be found at boot time, since they are stored in /boot/kernel.old. To remedy this, I suggest we have an option in /etc/defaults/make.conf to _not_ wipe out any modules in /boot/kernel (except kernel.ko of course) if modules are not built with kernel. Correct me if there already exists such an option. - Donn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
