Welcome to Icon Disti GhostBSD.png /boot/loader.conf.

Introduction[edit]

This is the place to make changes. The file loader.conf contains descriptive information on bootstrapping the system. Through it you can specify the kernel to be booted, parameters to be passed to it, and additional modules to be loaded; and gener ally set all variables described in loader.conf(8) 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 controls. You may also find more information on /boot/defaults/loader.conf
