A FreeBSD administrator is documenting the hardware configuration of a server. They need to record the PCI device list, the amount of RAM, and the boot-time probe messages. Which set of commands provides all this information?

`atacontrol list`, `dmesg`, and `kldload`

`camcontrol devlist`, `sysctl hw.model`, and `kldstat`

`pciconf -l`, `sysctl hw.physmem`, and `dmesg`

`sysctl hw.physmem`, `kldstat`, and `pciconf -l`

A FreeBSD administrator needs to load a kernel module that depends on another module. The dependency module is not currently loaded. What happens when the administrator runs `kldload` on the module?

The module loads but the dependency is not loaded, causing a runtime failure.

The administrator must manually load the dependency first with a separate kldload command.

The dependency is automatically loaded if it is available on the system.

The load fails with an error about the missing dependency.

During boot, a FreeBSD system logs 'ugen0: at usbus0'. What does this dmesg line indicate?

A kernel module was loaded for the device.

A PCI device was detected and configured.

The device failed to initialize.

A USB device was detected and assigned a device node.
