I am having what is turning into a big problem.  Seems there is a bug
in the kernel configuration programs or maybe I did something.  My
problem is I installed my system just fine.  I have a pretty base
system, 8 port card and wangtek tape drive.  Tonight I decided to add
TCP and sysadm installpkg fails while trying to instll the 'sl' driver
complaining about the mdevice file not being there.  Well, it *was*
there, one of the id* programs erased it.  I noticed this once before
on another system while removing TCP.  I put mdevice back and when I
tried the install again, it went away again.  Anyone know what is
going on here?  I am not sure how to install TCP with this going on.

Thanks in advance
