Description Oleg Y. Ivanov 2001-08-29 11:50:00 UTC 
make fails to link custom kernel with 'device ed' included since 4.3-20010822-STABLE snapshot.

Fresh install using snapshot via FTP.

linking kernel
if_ed.o: In function `ed_tick':

*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src/sys/compile/TEST.

Fix: 

add 'device miibus' to kernel conf file

since when 'ed' driver requires MII ?!
DAMN IT !
How-To-Repeat: cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf
/usr/sbin/config TEST
cd ../../compile/TEST
make depend 
make

From UPDATING: 

20010725: 
The ed driver has been updated.  It now allows mii attachments, 
which means that you must include the miibus in your kernel if 
you use the ed driver.

Why did you file a PR if it was your fault to begin with, and you
already know the fix?
