That's a little helpful. How do I determine what values to use? And what's
the easiest way to test the changes? Right now, I've got the bktr module
compiled directly into the kernel. But last time I tried to not compile it
into the kernel and load it as a module seperately, it failed to load, I
think it might've been because of the other device lines that the bktr page
in the FreeBSD handbook says are needed.
