AUTHOR: flz@FreeBSD.org
Some changes in the way ipw(4) and iwi(4) work lead to fundamental
changes in ipw-firmware and iwi-firmware ports. Since these drivers
are now using loadable kernel modules as firmware, two new ports have
been created: net/ipw-firmware-kmod and net/iwi-firmware-kmod.
You should not be able to install the wrong one since detection is
base on your FreeBSD version. Trying to install the wrong port will
result in an error message (port marked as IGNORE).
