I'm trying to modload -s a lkm and I'm getting
modload: /dev/ksyms: Device not configured

(I need the symbol table loading for use by another lkm).

This is GENERIC 3.1_STABLE with the lkm compiled up against the same 
source tree. The same lkm source and NetBSD tree code yields a loadable 
lkm elsewhere (not tried the same kernel, but GENERIC has "options LKM").

I can't see what's different except for this machine is using grub to dual 
boot with Linux. I'm doing a kernel load with "kernel --type=netbsd 
/netbsd" (i.e. I have to specify the root device) as chainloading didn't 
work for me (yet).
