KGET(8)			  BSD 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 userconfig (-c) session.	Most typi‐
     cally, it is written to a /boot/kernel.conf file which is then loaded
     from /boot/loader.rc (using "load -t userconfig_script /boot/ker‐
     nel.conf"), saving the user from having to re-enter it each time the sys‐
     tem is booted.

     kget uses the sysctl(3) interface to retrieve data from the kernel and
     requires that at least the machdep.uc_devlist symbol be present.  If it's
     not, you may need to update your kernel before using this utility.

     Usage: kget filename

     where filename is either a regular file (which is overwritten) or -,
     indicating that standard output should be used.

SEE ALSO
     sysctl(3)

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

BUGS
     Sure to be some.
