It's not immediately clear by what mechanism loader(8) will be loading the
preloaded file. Specifically name-drop loader.conf(5) with a pointer to the
module loading section and a description of what the 'name' should look
like, because that certainly isn't clear from the loader.conf(5) standpoint.
The default loader.conf already has a pointer to md(4) where it appears and
the reference to loader.conf in the new version of this manpage should make
it more clear that this is where one should look for information.

filesystem larger than about 50-55 MiB.
The description of VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE is roughly as hand-wavy as my
understanding of the option, but at least mentioning that it's a factor
and giving an empirical datapoint that works will give folks some idea
of what to tweak if they have problems.
MD_READONLY flag for the md device automatically instantiated during
kernel init for an mdroot filesystem.
Note that there is specifically and by design no tunable or sysctl
control over this feature. Without this option, you already have control
over whether the mdroot fs is writeable using vfs.root.mountfrom.options
from loader(8), the root_rw_mount rcvar, and by using "mount -u[rw] /"
or equivelent on the fly. This option is being added to provide a way
to make the mdroot fs truly immutable before userland code begins running.

and how to load it as a module.
This is useful for people using the MINIMAL kernel configuration file.

go asking what debug flags to set for GEOM to make it work. Advice
them to use gpart(8) instead.
Something similar should probably done with disklabel,
but I need to rewrite the disklabel examples first.

BTW, what editors are the culprits? I'm using vim and it shows
me whitespace at EOL in troff files with a thick blue block...
