Hi,
  Loading/unloading of kernel modules now works for 32 bit kernels.
You need to build modutils from cvs.  I've tested it by loading
core scsi support, scsi disk support, sym53c8xx driver, and ext2 file
system support, and then accessing a file system off the 53c875 on
my A180.

Trying to unload the sym53c8xx module causes a kernel crash as
a result of interupts being disabled on entry to the syscall and the
module not cancelling its timer.
