add ext2fs to the module list in modules/Makefile
please add ext2fs to the modules list in src/sys/modules/Makefile. my /usr/src tree resides on an ext2fs partition and the fact that ext2fs.ko isn't built causes me trouble when making installworld just after rebooting the new kernel.

Portions of the ext2fs source are covered by the GPL. You need to rebuild the kernel with option EXT2FS.

There a linking clausing in the GPL, which one can interpret to mean that loading ext2fs.ko into the kernel would cause the entire kernel to be tainted by the GPL. However, FreeBSD builds by default (as modules) the maestro3 sound driver and the gnu fpu emulator which are GPL too. gnu fpu appears to be dual licensed software, and covered by a BSD type license for FreeBSD's use. Don't know about maestro3. -- Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-current in the body of the message
