How does one make geom_concat(4) load at boot, assume two devices are to
be used as a single concatenated device and then create
the /dev/<whatever> device for it?
My MIPS kernconf has:
# GEOM modules
device geom_map # to get access to the SPI flash
partitions
device geom_uncompress # compressed in-memory filesystem
hackery!
device geom_concat #=20
device geom_label #=20
options GEOM_CONCAT # concatenation device support
options GEOM_UNCOMPRESS
options GEOM_LABEL
And yet, I am unable to use gconcat to do anthing useful:
# gconcat
usage: gconcat help
gconcat list [-a] [name ...]
gconcat status [-ags] [name ...]
gconcat load [-v]
gconcat unload [-v]
# kldstat -v|grep g_
