I'm working on a port that needs to install a kernel module (loaded by an rcNG script). Is there a preferred location for kernel modules installed by a port? A quick search of Google, the Porter's Handbook, and hier(7) came up empty. The following locations seem to be popular: $PREFIX/lib/$PORTNAME $PREFIX/modules $PREFIX/share/$PORTNAME There's also /boot/modules, but that's outside of PREFIX... Would anyone care to set a standard? Thanks, Craig
