Why doesn't Vinum start automatically?

[Chris Knight]

There have been changes to rc and rc.conf lately to autostart Vinum.  But
on my system it does not auto load at start and I wind up manually loading
the module, reading the config and mounting the volume.  Any help if
figuring out why this is not working would be appreciated.

rc.conf now sets a variable with the drives from to read the config:

        vinum_slices="/dev/da1 /dev/da2 /dev/da3 /dev/da4"    

and rc checks for this variable and loads vinum if it is set:

        if [ -n "$vinum_slices" ]; then
                if [ -r /modules/vinum.ko ]; then       # jkh paranoia
                        kldload vinum
                        vinum read $vinum_slices
                else
                        echo "Can't find /modules/vinum.ko"
                fi
        fi


Any ideas why this isn't working?  Is it working in -current but not -stable?
