These commands are implemented by .so helper libraries provided by GEOM classes, in this case /lib/geom/geom_concat.so, so you need to make sure it exists. It has nothing to do with the kernel. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
I am too dumb to understand geom(4)
How does one make geom_concat(4) load at boot, assume two devices are to be used as a single concatenated device and then create the /dev/ device for it? My MIPS kernconf has: # GEOM modules device geom_map# to get access to the SPI flash partitions device geom_uncompress # compressed in-memory filesystem hackery! device geom_concat # device geom_label # options GEOM_CONCAT # concatenation device support options GEOM_UNCOMPRESS options GEOM_LABEL And yet, I am unable to use gconcat to do anthing useful: # gconcat usage: gconcat help gconcat list [-a] [name ...] gconcat status [-ags] [name ...] gconcat load [-v] gconcat unload [-v] # kldstat -v|grep g_ 43 g_part_mbr 42 g_part_bsd 44 g_uncompress 38 g_map 41 g_part 19 g_md 35 g_concat 37 g_disk 57 g_class 40 g_label 39 g_vfs 36 g_dev signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
