Ok, dumb question of the day: How do I actually install and use the precompiled

one.


You do not need add_drv for filesystems.

Just replace the binary in /kernel/fs or modunload the loaded binary
and then modload a different binary.

What build were the modules intended for?  I'm trying it on B72 and get
Sep  9 10:39:09 vj genunix: [ID 819705 kern.notice]
/kernel/fs/amd64/pcfs: undefined symbol
Sep  9 10:39:09 vj genunix: [ID 826211 kern.notice]

Hi John,

they're built from the latest sources. On Aug/14th, the following fix:

6367770 RFE: add userland interface to fem (file event monitoring)
        (PSARC/2007/027)

went in, and that modified all filesystem backends - including PCFS.

Filesystem modules built from sources later than that date will require a matching kernel, or you'll see the module load fail as per above.

So no build 71. I _think_ the re-spun build 72 is fine, but if in doubt then a BFU from archives built after Aug/14th will do.

Thanks,

John
