Description Olafur Osvaldsson 2004-11-04 15:10:27 UTC 
kldload tries to load all modules by default from /boot/modules even
though kldload(8) states that /boot/kernel is the directory containing
the modules, and in sys/boot/common/module.c the default is set to
"/boot/kernel;/boot/modules" wich is almost in sync with kldconfig(8)
man page that states /boot/kernel, /boot/modules, /modules to be the
default module search path used by the kernel.

Fix: You can either apply the attached patch or just comment out module_path

	
How-To-Repeat: 	
kldload ucom (or any working module on your system)
