-.Sh NAME
-.Nm vn
-.Nd vnode disk driver
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Cd "pseudo-device vn"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm
-driver uses swap or a file as backing store to abstract-out a character and
-block device which may then be used like a disk. The
-.Nm
-driver supports both labeled and unlabeled pseudo-disks and is useful for
-a variety of applications, including swap files and building mini-root,
-floppy, or CDRom disk images.
-.Nm
-may also be used to create temporary swap-backed filesystems, such as /tmp,
-in a somewhat less memory-hungry manner then MFS.
-.Pp
-This document assumes that you're familiar with how to generate kernels,
-how to properly configure disks and pseudo-devices in a kernel
-configuration file.
-.Pp
-In order to compile in support for the
-.Nm ,
-you must add a line similar
-to the following to your kernel configuration file:
-.Bd -unfilled -offset indent
-pseudo-device vn #Vnode driver
-.Ed
-.Pp
-.Nm
-may also exist as a kernel module to be automatically loaded into the
-system when you run the vnconfig command for the first time.
-.Pp
-There is a run-time utility that is used for configuring
-.Nm Ns 's .
-See
-.Xr vnconfig 8
-for more information.
-.Sh BUGS
-The
-.Nm
-driver does not work if the file does not reside in a local filesystem.
-.Sh FILES
-/dev/{,r}vn* - vn device special files.
-.Pp
-.Sh HISTORY
-The vnode disk driver was originally written at the University of
-Utah and was substantially modified by
-.Fx
-developers to add
-swap-backed support.
