Hi,

I can't load many if_* module on FreeBSD 8.3-PRERELEASE on amd64 and i386..
I have rebuild the system from the latest source. When I try a kldload
/boot/kernel/if_*.ko I have error such as "file exist" or "exec format
error".

kldstat just after system start:
Id Refs Address            Size     Name
 1    1 0xffffffff80100000 e58280   kernel

kldload -v /boot/kernel/if_*.ko:
kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/if_ae.ko: File exists
kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/if_age.ko: File exists
kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/if_alc.ko: File exists
kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/if_ale.ko: File exists
kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/if_an.ko: File exists
kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/if_ath.ko: Exec format error
kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/if_aue.ko: Exec format error
kldload: can't load /boot/kernel/if_axe.ko: Exec format error

GENERIC already has all of these drivers. Did you buidt a kernel with
no network interfaces? If the kernel is built with the drivers, you
can't load them as they already exist. (And you can't unload drivers
built into the kernel, either.)
