Hi again,
I would like to correct the information I send before.
After I rebooted my machine once more (by starting vmware :( ) I had to
realize, that the vmware.sh stop/start procedure is obviously not always
sufficient.
Without starting any applications I opened a Terminal window and started
vmware and it got up without booting my box.
So I suppose the problem is somewhere else. But I would still like to know
how I can influence the load order of kernel modules, even if it does not
solve my problem ;)
best wishes,
Stefan

Hi all,
first of all about the background of my question:
if I start vmware (version 2 from the ports tree) on my FreeBSD 4.8
system, the system reboots :(( I found that if I restart
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/vmware.sh (stop, start) the kernel module vmmon gets
unloaded and loaded again and I get a new order in the kldstat list (see
below). I am wondering how I can influence the initial load order of
kernel modules, because the problem with vmware my disappear if vmmon is
always loaded after if_tap.ko (which is also part of the vmware.sh
script, but which does not unload by vmware.sh stop).
Thanks for you help,
Stefan
