hi,
i am a bit in trouble with a june 4th snap of -current.

I have successfully installed it, and even compiled and
installed a kernel using the GENERIC config.
However when i try to remove devices from there,
with high probability i end up in a panic while booting,
generally in loader_preload() which tries to dereference
a null pointer.
 
I cannot really track down what is going on -- the loader shows
something like

        module miibus
        module usb
        module splash

and if i remove any usb device, or something ethernet using the mii 
bus, or (it seems) even some scsi device, it panics.
Is this a bug or a feature ? Should i just keep all the pieces
in GENERIC and add my options there ?

help appreciated.

        thanks
        luigi
