There doesn't seem to be any way of getting KERNEL_KO set from the
kernel config file.


If you change the name of the kernel binary itself, loader won't be able
to find it.  By renaming the /boot directory it goes into it is Doing the
Right Thing.

Huh?


kernel="kernel"         # /boot sub-directory containing kernel and modules
bootfile="kernel"       # Kernel name (possibly absolute path)


I note that loader.conf(5) is completely out of date in this regard. What can I say? I'm lazy. :-)


In 5.X, the "kernel" is the core kernel binary and the modules built with
it.  All of it goes into the same directory.  The /modules directory is
unused and should be deleted. When you specify a kernel to load in loader,
you ask for the /boot/foo directory name ("load foo") and loader does the
rest.

She stood on the tracks
Waving her arms
Leading me to that third rail shock
Quick as a wink
She changed her mind

She gave me a night
That's all it was
What will it take until I stop
Kidding myself
Wasting my time

There's nothing else I can do
'Cause I'm doing it all for Leyna
I don't want anyone new
'Cause I'm living it all for Leyna
There's nothing in it for you
'Cause I'm giving it all to Leyna
