Vnode Driver

[andy8]

Hi,

I don't know how to add this following line to my kernel configuration file :

pseudo-device  vn	    #Vnode driver

I have built a custom kernel called 'MYKERNEL' but need some help on inserting the line
into my kernel.

How could I achieve that ?

On current versions of FreeBSD, that's obsolete. It's now md(4), and has been for something like ten years. Is your system really that old, or maybe it's just old documentation?

Hi,

Thanks for replying. The documentation that I'm using is old and should
be used with FreeBSD 4.8. I'm however using Release 8.1.

But, how could I insert the line into the custom kernel ?

Use your favorite text editor to open the config file. If device md isn't in it already, add it. It's already in GENERIC.

When in doubt, read the handbook:
