Trying the first one gives an error. Apparently you can only vnconfig the base device, vn0, not vn0c. This leads us to the problem that the feature mount=/path is useless, since you cannot do vnconfig vn0 /tmp/diskimage mount=/mnt nor vnconfig -e vn0c /tmp/diskimage mount=/mnt since the former is attempting to mount /dev/vn0 and the latter attempts to vnconfig vn0c, both of which are not allowed. How-To-Repeat see above All of the examples worked fine on my collection of 4.x-STABLE machines. I think this PR can be safely closed out.
