Hello.

This is a simple GEOM class for disks concatenation.

usage: concat create [-v] name disk1 [disk2 [...]]
       concat destroy [-fv] name
       concat label [-v] name disk1 [disk2 [...]]
       concat list

Command 'create' concatenates given disks in one device called 'name.concat'.
This command don't use on-disk metadata.

Command 'label' stores metadata in last sectors of given disks, from now on
when geom_concat.ko kld module will be loaded, it will be automatically
configured.

Commands 'destroy' and 'list' are self explanatory, but remember that
command 'destroy' doesn't clear metadata, it just turns provider off.
