>Description:

kldload(8) has the following under the FILES section:

FILES
     /boot/kernel  directory containing loadable modules.  Modules 
		   must have an extension of .ko.

This directory only exists in 5.x, not 4.x. The directory in question
for 4.x is /modules.

This 'bug' was introduced in rev 1.7.2.9.

>How-To-Repeat:

man kldload

>Fix:

Change the line to read "/modules".
