I am trying to build a custom kernel with the urtw device on 8.0 beta 1 amd64. According to the man page, I should add device urtw to my config (just Generic plus this) and it should work. But, I get:

config: Error: device "urtw" is unknown

Can reproduce. It is built as module though, so you can kldload if_urtw. Perhaps the ${_urtw} magic in sys/modules/usb/Makefile is not understood by config(8).

Negative, urtw is not mentioned in /sys/conf/files*

Ok , so I added it to /sys/conf/files and it seems to compile and run fine. Is this correct or is there more to it?
