+To build a kernel for use with the loadable kernel module, follow these
+steps:
+	1. do "make bsd"
+
+	2. do "make install-bsd"
+	   (probably has to be done as root)
+
+	3.  run "FreeBSD/minstall" as root
+
+	4. build a new kernel
+
+	5. install and reboot with the new kernel
+
+	6. use modload(8) to load the packet filter with:
+		modload if_ipl.o
+
+	7. do "modstat" to confirm that it has been loaded successfully.
+
+There is no need to use mknod to create the device in /dev;
+- upon loading the module, it will create itself with the correct values,
+  under the name (IPL_NAME) from the Makefile.  It will also remove itself
+  from /dev when it is modunload'd.
