Calling vid_configure and vid_configure is dying.
The list is generated from a linker_set ... one of those special linker
lists.
Something's broken the list maybe the DATA_SET macro is something ilke
that.
Dependencies for setdef.h were broken by removing ioconf.o from ${OBJS}.
Previously, any change in the configuration resulted in a change to
ioconf.c, so setdefs.h got rebuilt. Now, removing whole drivers doesn't
change anything in ${OBJS}, so the old setdefs.h gets used and the wrong
amount of space is allocated for some linker sets. This bug cost me a
few hours when I tried removing console drivers in order to debug the
console initialization bugs.
This quick fix also backs out rev.1.180:

Re: GENERIC from today does not detect system console on my box
(In general, I don't think I like putting the hints in a separate place or even a separate file... now I have two or three files I have to deal with rather then one config file. It makes managing bunches of config files annoying. I wish that the earlier format hadn't been ripped out. I don't see much of an advantage of moving it into a loader-accessible file). The hints file itself is largely just filler; large chunks of it are going to go away properly soon as the drivers it's still helping out learn more about PnP. As has already been pointed out, it's also correct for the hints file to be associated with the system, not the kernel. -- \\ Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. \\ Mike Smith \\ Tell him he should learn how to fish himself, \\ [EMAIL PROTECTED] \\ and he'll hate you for a lifetime. \\ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message

I copied GENERIC and GENERIC.hints to MYKERNEL and MYKERNEL.hints respective, and edit them to suit my system.
