If the file exists, it will be overwritten. .Pp Most typically, the information is written to a .Pa /boot/kernel.conf file which is then loaded from .Pa /boot/loader.rc (using .Dq "load -t userconfig_script /boot/kernel.conf" ) , saving the user from having to re-enter it each time the system is booted. .Sh HISTORY The .Nm command appeared in .Fx 3.1 , as part of the PicoBSD distribution by .An Andrzej Bialecki .Sh BUGS Sure to be some.
