Hi,

I was wondering if there is a tool available that can:
1) parse the dmesg file
2) compare it to the GENERIC kernel file
3) and create a file called (for example) CUSTOM or MYKERNEL where unused
devices are disabled (or commented out).

There was/is (it's pretty old now) a tool available for openbsd called
dmassage (see: http://www.sentia.org/projects/dmassage/manpage.shtml)

Is there a similar tool available for freebsd?

thanks a lot
didier
