KGET(8) 	       DragonFly System Manager's Manual	       KGET(8)

NAME
     kget -- print kernel change information

SYNOPSIS
     kget filename

DESCRIPTION
     The kget utility allows one to view or save any device configuration
     information which was changed in a userconfig (-c) session.

     The filename argument specifies which file (or `-' for stdout) the infor-
     mation should be saved to.  If the file exists, it will be overwritten.

     Most typically, the information is written to a /boot/kernel.conf file
     which is then loaded from /boot/loader.rc (using ``load -t
     userconfig_script /boot/kernel.conf''), saving the user from having to
     re-enter it each time the system is booted.

HISTORY
     The kget command appeared in FreeBSD 3.1, as part of the PicoBSD distri-
     bution by Andrzej Bialecki

BUGS
     Sure to be some.
