Re: amd64/151722: kldload on 8.1-RELEASE memorystick fails
There are only one small problems with that explanation: There is no solaris.ko there. (I had in fact tried that first, since that is the way it is set up on i386.) And the same problem occurs if I try to load geom_eli.ko. ___ freebsd-amd64@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-amd64 To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-amd64-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

On second thought, geom_eli is probably a bad example because it too depends on other kernel modules (I think). In any case, Exec format error seems a seriously misleading error message if the problem is really the failure to load a dependent module. - Harald ___ freebsd-amd64@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-amd64 To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-amd64-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

That's true, but if we knew an easy way to fix that, we would do it a long time ago. BTW, you can also try chroot-ing to /mnt2 before kldload-ing modules. But, yes, I totally agree that the layout of our livecd environment is not very convenient. P.S. For an example (one of many) of how you can make things more convenient for yourself: http://wiki.freebsd.org/AvgLiveCD -- Andriy Gapon ___ freebsd-amd64@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-amd64 To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-amd64-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
