Hi,

As a new FreeBSD user I think it would be helpful to have some information
about kernel modules in the handbook.  Perhaps this could be a section of
Chapter 9, "Configuring the FreeBSD Kernel."  Here is a first sketch of
what might be included:

If it would be useful, I could try to write it up in proper SGML.

Also, section 9.3 ("The Configuration File") might mention the line
"options EXT2FS" for compiling in ext2 support.

Thanks,
Walter
