Members of freebsd-current mailing list are probably too busy, so I'm forwarding my question to more dynamic freebsd-questions mailing list. Is my guess about the /src/release/Makefile right or wrong?

BTW when 5.2.1-RC2 is going to be released? I saw few cvs commits with preparation to this release.

Thanks

Hello.

When I boot from the installation floppies of 5.2.1-RC, at the beginning of sysinstall is starting I get a window on the blue background with following error message on it:

Loading module if_pcn.ko failed
AMD Am79c79x PCI ethernet card

then next window with the same error message:

Loading module if_vr.ko failed
VIA VT3043/VT86C100A Rhide PCI ethernet card

and so on about if_ste.ko, if_xl.ko, if_ed.ko, if_bge.ko, if_re.ko, if_wb.ko, if_rl.ko, if_sis.ko, if_dc.ko, if_bfe.ko, if_aue.ko, if_fxp.ko and if_sf.ko modules.

Previously I successfully installed FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE from the floppies. Now, when I'm trying to install FreeBSD 5.2.1-RC by the same way, I'm geting the above error messages, so I'm forbearing to continue this installation. This problem is always repeatable, even after I made the floppies on different diskettes. This system doesn't have any AMD or VIA chip on it.

Could it be a result of revision 1.825.2.2 of the /src/release/Makefile that adds a 'strip -x' run on the kernel modules on the mfsroot floppy?

It looks like miibus is having some sort of problem:  the modules that
complain are all dependent on it.
