NAME
loader.4th
- loader.conf processing tools
DESCRIPTION
The file that goes by the name of
is a set of commands designed to manipulate
loader.conf5
files.
The default
/boot/loader.rc
includes
and uses one of its commands to automatically read and process
the standard
loader.conf5
files.
Other commands exists to help the user specify alternate
configurations.
The commands of
by themselves are not enough for most uses.
Please refer to the
examples below for the most common situations, and to
loader(8)
for additional commands.
Before using any of the commands provided in
,
it must be included
through the command:
include loader.4th
This line is present in the default
/boot/loader.rc
file, so it is not needed (and should not be re-issued) in a normal setup.
The commands provided by it are:
boot
boot kernelname [...
]
boot directory [...
]
boot -flag ...
Boot as specified by the
loader.conf5
files read.
Depending on the arguments passed, it can override boot flags and
either the kernel name or the search path for kernel and modules.
boot-conf
boot-conf kernelname [...
]
boot-conf directory [...
]
boot-conf -flag ...
Works like
boot
described above, but instead of booting immediately, uses
autoboot
so it can be stopped.
start
Reads
/boot/defaults/loader.conf
all other
loader.conf5
files specified in it, and then proceeds to boot as specified in them.
This
is the command used in the default
/boot/loader.rc
file, and it uses the
autoboot
command (see
loader(8)),
so it can be stopped for further interaction with
loader(8).
initialize
Initialize the supporting library so commands can be used without
executing
start
first.
Like
start
reads
/boot/defaults/loader.conf
and all other
loader.conf5
files specified in it.
Returns a flag on the stack to indicate
if any configuration file was successfully loaded.

loader.conf5
file.
