You are correct. Not for the size reasons though, but I want to be able to change as much as possible on the fly, without a reboot, and I cannot "kldunload kernel" yet. ;-) Another thing is that, while this is kinda unsupported configuration, it should work, even being an edge case. So it's a good test if our kernel has no hidden dependencies which would inhibit use of a module when it exists. Personally I do not see much benefits in having mem/io as modules, but if they are provided, I should be able to load them from the loader. If they must be compiled in, I suggest we stop shipping them as modules so not to confuse people (even that one must specially use "nodevice" to exclude them). ./danfe _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
