Hello,
I need to load the bnxt module at FreeBSD 13.0 startup to get all network interfaces during an (OPNsense) installation. I tried to enable it in boot stage-3 (OPNsense Escape to loader prompt):
First attempt:
and
But the bnxt NICs are still missing.
Second attempt:
These commands load the kernel and the module and then start the kernel - That looked good so far.
But unfortunately the boot process aborts at a later point due to read-only file system (I am not sure if it is an FreeBSD or OPNsense topic).
-> Do I miss a (kernel) boot flag to force read-write access?
-> Is it possible to load the bnxt module at startup before installation processes start?
Thank you and best, cugerm
