When you try to load "nfs", the kernel is supposed to look it up in linker.hints and determine that the module exists in nfsclient.ko. It certainly works for me, although this is on a -CURRENT that is a few weeks old: temp1# kldstat Id Refs Address Size Name 1 1 0xc0100000 29cb64 kernel temp1# mount_nfs synge:/usr/local /mnt temp1# kldstat Id Refs Address Size Name 1 2 0xc0100000 29cb64 kernel 2 1 0xc133d000 16000 nfsclient.ko temp1# df /mnt Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on synge:/usr/local 2540782 1809164 528356 77% /mnt The linker.hints file should be automatically generated when you install the modules.
