Those modules won't be loaded until you start the `linux' service with 'lin= ux_mounts_enable' enabled (or you mount them yourself with fstab, manually,= or another script): sysrc linux_mounts_enable=3DYES > I had not yet actually attempted to run my small Linuxes in FreeBSD or Ne= tBSD, not ready yet. > > I still would need such things as init scripts, proc fs, /etc/fstab and o= ther configuration files. The target directory can be empty (in the case of the default emulation pat= h, '/compat/linux') when starting the service. It doesn't actually "start" = your guest OS. I don't know what your plans are, but running Linux inside a= jail is different than using the compatibility layer.

Sadly, documentation has lagged behind the high pace of OS development. But= , better that than a slow pace of development.
