-.Dt LOADER.CONF 5
-.Os
-.Sh NAME
-.Nm loader.conf
-.Nd system bootstrap configuration information
-.Pp
-.Nm loader.conf.local
-.Nd localized system bootstrap configuration information
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The file
-.Nm
-contains descriptive information on bootstrapping the system. Through
-it you can specify the kernel to be booted, parameters to be passed to
-it, additional modules to be loaded, and generally set all variables
-described in
-.Xr loader 8 .
-.Pp
-The file
-.Pa /boot/loader.rc
-must have the follow two lines for
-.Nm
-to be automatically processed:
-.Pp
-.Dl include /boot/loader.4th
-.Dl start
-.Pp
-If no
-.Pa /boot/loader.rc
-exists at installworld time, one with the above lines will be installed.
-.Sh SYNTAX
-Though
-.Nm loader.conf Ns No 's
-format was defined explicitly to resemble
-.Xr rc.conf 8 ,
-and can be sourced by
-.Xr sh 1 ,
-some settings are treated in a special fashion. Also, the
-behavior of some settings depends only on it's suffix.
-.Pp
-The general parsing rules are:
-.Bl -bullet
-.It
-Spaces and empty lines are ignored.
-.It
-A # sign will mark the remaining of the line as a comment.
-.It
-Only one setting can be present on each line.
-.El
-.Pp
-All settings have the following format:
-.Pp
-.Dl variable="value"
-.Pp
-Unless it belongs to one of the classes of settings that receive special
-treatment, a setting will set the value of a
-.Xr loader 8 's
-environment variable. The settings that receive special
-treatment are listed below. The ones beginning with a
-.Qq *
-define the modules to be loaded and
-may have any prefix. All such settings sharing a common
-prefix refer to the same module.
-.Bl -tag -width Ar
-.It Ar exec
-Immediately executes a
-.Xr loader 8
-command. This type of setting cannot be processed by programs other
-than
-.Xr loader 8 ,
-so it's use should be avoided. Multiple instances of it will be processed
-independently.
-.It Ar loader_conf_files
-Defines additional configuration files to be processed right after the
-present file.
-.It Ar kernel
-Name of the kernel to be loaded. If no kernel name is set, no additional
-modules will be loaded.
-.It Ar kernel_options
-Flags to be passed to the kernel.
-.It Ar verbose_loading
-If set to
-.Dq YES ,
-the modules' names will be displayed as they are loaded.
-.It Ar *_load
-If set to
-.Dq 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.
-.It Ar *_name
-Defines the name of the module.
-.It Ar *_type
-Defines the module's type. If none is given, it defaults to a kld module.
-.It Ar *_flags
-Flags and parameters to be passed to the module.
-.It Ar *_before
-Commands to be executed before the module is loaded. Use of this setting
-should be avoided.
-.It Ar *_after
-Commands to be executed after the module is loaded. Use of this setting
-should be avoided.
-.It Ar *_error
-Commands to be executed if the loading of a module fails. Except for the
-special value
-.Dq abort ,
-which aborts the bootstrap process, use of this setting should be avoided.
-.El
-.Sh DEFAULT SETTINGS
-Most of
-.Nm loader.conf Ns No 's
-default settings can be ignored. The few of them which are important
-or useful are:
-.Bl -tag -width bootfile -offset indent
-.It Va bitmap_load
-.Pq Dq NO
-If set to
-.Dq YES ,
-a bitmap will be loaded to be displayed on screen while booting.
-.It Va bitmap_name
-.Pq Dq /boot/splash.bmp

-.It Va loader_conf_files
-.Pq Do /boot/loader.conf /boot/loader.conf.local Dc
-.It Va splash_bmp_load

-on the screen while booting.
-.It Va userconfig_script_load
-.Pq Dq NO
-If set to
-.Dq YES ,
-will load the userconfig data.
-.It Va vesa_load
-.Pq Dq NO
-If set to
-.Dq YES ,
-the vesa module will be loaded, enabling bitmaps above VGA resolution to
-be displayed.
