Is there a way to build kernel modules by themselves without having to build the entire kernel? I am adding umass support to a 4.x machine but I don't want to build the entire kernel. I already have scbus, but I need da and of course, umass. TIA, pete -- Peter C.

I believe you can cd /usr/src/sys/modules/umass, compile/install/load umass.ko. On Thu, 24 Feb 2005 09:56:22 -0500, Peter C.

cd src/sys/modules/umass ; make all install clean
This assumes that the sources match what's on the system.
