LOADER.CONF(5)		  FreeBSD File Formats Manual		LOADER.CONF(5)

NAME

loader.conf -- system bootstrap configuration information

DESCRIPTION

The file loader.conf contains descriptive information on bootstrapping the system. Through it you can specify the kernel to be booted, parame- ters to be passed to it, and additional modules to be loaded; and gener- ally set all variables described in loader(8). The file /boot/loader.rc must contain the following two lines for loader.conf to be automatically processed: include /boot/loader.4th start If no /boot/loader.rc exists at installworld time, one with the above lines will be installed.

SYNTAX

Though loader.conf's format was defined explicitly to resemble rc.conf(5), and can be sourced by sh(1), some settings are treated in a special fashion. Also, the behavior of some settings is defined by the setting's suffix; the prefix identifies which module the setting con- trols. The general parsing rules are: Spaces and empty lines are ignored. A # sign will mark the remainder of the line as a comment. Only one setting can be present on each line. All settings have the following format: variable="value" Unless it belongs to one of the classes of settings that receive special treatment, a setting will set the value of a loader(8) environment vari- able. The settings that receive special treatment are listed below. Set- tings beginning with "*" below define the modules to be loaded and may have any prefix; the prefix identifies a module. All such settings shar- ing a common prefix refer to the same module. exec Immediately executes a loader(8) command. This type of set- ting cannot be processed by programs other than loader(8), so its use should be avoided. Multiple instances of it will be processed independently. loader_conf_files Defines additional configuration files to be processed right after the present file. kernel Name of the kernel to be loaded. If no kernel name is set, no additional modules will be loaded. kernel_options Flags to be passed to the kernel. password Provides a password to be required by check-password before execution is allowed to continue. verbose_loading If set to ``YES'', module names will be displayed as they are loaded. *_load If set to ``YES'', that module will be loaded. If no name is defined (see below), the module's name is taken to be the same as the prefix. *_name Defines the name of the module. *_type Defines the module's type. If none is given, it defaults to a kld module. *_flags Flags and parameters to be passed to the module. *_before Commands to be executed before the module is loaded. Use of this setting should be avoided. *_after Commands to be executed after the module is loaded. Use of this setting should be avoided. *_error Commands to be executed if the loading of a module fails. Except for the special value ``abort'', which aborts the bootstrap process, use of this setting should be avoided.

DEFAULT SETTINGS

Most of loader.conf's default settings can be ignored. The few of them which are important or useful are: bitmap_load (``NO'') If set to ``YES'', a bitmap will be loaded to be displayed on screen while booting. bitmap_name (``/boot/splash.bmp'') Name of the bitmap to be loaded. Any valid bitmap path can be used. kernel (``/kernel'') loader_conf_files (``/boot/loader.conf /boot/loader.conf.local'') splash_bmp_load (``NO'') If set to ``YES'', will load the splash screen module, making it possible to display a bmp image on the screen while booting. splash_pcx_load (``NO'') If set to ``YES'', will load the splash screen module, making it possible to display a pcx image on the screen while booting. userconfig_script_load (``NO'') If set to ``YES'', will load the userconfig data. vesa_load (``NO'') If set to ``YES'', the vesa module will be loaded, enabling bitmaps above VGA resolution to be dis- played.

FILES

/boot/defaults/loader.conf default settings -- do not change this file. /boot/loader.4th defines the commands used by loader to read and process loader.conf. /boot/loader.conf user defined settings. /boot/loader.conf.local machine-specific settings for sites with a common loader.conf. /boot/loader.rc contains the instructions to automatically process loader.conf.
