Sorry you feel that way but if you look in your mailbox you will
also find a response from me (I think privately) suggesting that
since you only want 2 modules you might do better to use MODULES_OVERRIDE.
I was truely taking you at your word and no I didn't read things
into your mail that you didn't write. Not being a mind reader it's
the best I can do.

As for wasting someones time, Sorry I was only trying to help.
You can thank me for the original SCSI systen, boot blocks, divert,
netgraph, vimage work, Multiple routing tables, original devfs,
kernel threads and hundreds of bugfixes another time.
