building for diskless support: unknown option mfs

2006-02-26 Thread Guido Van Hoecke 

Hi,
I try to build a kernel that supports dsikless booting (on a  
FreeBSD-RELEASE-6.0). I have copied the GENERIC config file as DISKLESS  
and added following lines (as described in  
/usr/share/examples/diskless/clone_root:


options MFS
options BOOTP
options BOOTP_NFSROOT
options BOOTP_COMPAT

When I start building the DISKLESS kernel, I get following output:

23:58:56 beastie:/usr/src# make buildkernel KERNCONF=DISKLESS

--

Kernel build for DISKLESS started on Sun Feb 26 23:59:30 CET 2006

--
=== DISKLESS
mkdir -p /usr/obj/usr/src/sys

stage 1: configuring the kernel

--
cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf;   
PATH=/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/sbin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/bin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/legacy/usr/games:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/sbin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/bin:/usr/obj/usr/src/tmp/usr/games:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin   
config  -d /usr/obj/usr/src/sys/DISKLESS  /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/DISKLESS

/usr/src/sys/i386/conf/DISKLESS: unknown option MFS
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/src.
23:59:30 beastie:/usr/src#

Did I overlook something? Is this option obsolete or so? It is not  
mentioned in the handbook.


Please advise.

TIA, Guido.

Yes, MFS is obsolete, it's superceded by the md(4) device.  Please
submit a PR about the obsolete documentation.
