I have installed the rtc and vmware ports. I get the following on boot: link_elf: symbol linux_ioctl_register_handler undefined kldload: can't load /usr/local/modules/rtc.ko: Exec format error Looking through the messages, I find the suggestion that the rtc port needs #ifdef MODULE_DEPEND MODULE_DEPEND(rtc, linux, 1, 1, 1) #endif in rtc.c... checking the port distribution, I find that rtc.c DOES have this code; yet I still get the error. Am I supposed to manually pass -DMODULE_DEPEND to the make? Or is there something else wrong here? Despite this, vmware does run, though it warns me that RTC is not loaded so my Win 98 timing will be off. My difficulty with vmware is that I, too, seem to be unable the get a working configuration. Is there some way that I am able to specify that my vmware disk should be ad0s1? (That is where my C: drive is located.) In the configuration editor I am unable to select any other option than "Virtual Disk"; from some of these messages, I take it "Raw Disk" is what I am looking for? Or is vmware able to run an existing partition at all? Am I going to have to reinstall Windows on the virtual disk? Oh yeah, it doesn't like my /dev/sysmouse either. Any help appreciated.
