To determine + if your system has the "kernfs" file system in it, check + the build file for your kernel (usually this file is named + "/sys/i386/conf/GENERICISA") for the following: + + options KERNFS + + By default, NetBSD has this file system compiled as part + of the kernel; if you wish to use this example with NetBSD + you will have to remove this "options" line and rebuild + your kernel. + + +3.0 Directions + + To test the module, do the following: + + cd module + make load + + A load message (the copyright) will be printed on the console. + + You must then add the following line to the "/etc/fstab" file: + + kernfs /kern kernfs rw 1 1 + + At the root prompt, type the following: + + mkdir /kern + + Ignore the following error if it occurs: + + mkdir: /kern: File exists + + Again at the root prompt, type the following command: + + mount /kern + cd /kern + cat version + + This will verify that the module is working correctly. + + +4.0 Recovering resources + + The file system consumes 8 pages of memory when loaded; it + can be freed up by unloading it. To unload it, type the + following from the directory this file is in: + + cd module + make unload + + The file system will be unloaded by name. + + +5.0 END OF DOCUMENT |
