Sorry donno who set "$vinum_slide" variable, however,

grog> Ugh.  It wants to be
grog>   if [ -n "$vinum_slices" ]

why not do as the CCD do? Anybody have the answer?

	if [ -f /etc/vinum.conf ];
		vinum create /etc/vinum.conf >/dev/null 2>&1
	fi

Smart and simple enough?

And, why we should always do kldload the vinum module? Built-in the
vinum module into kernel (say "pseudo-device vinum" in kernel config
file) is prohibited?

Sorry I do not know how to decide that vinum (or whatever feature) is
already built-in or should be kldload after the kernel starts, but now
we have /boot/loader; pre-loading the modules is quite easy (see the
usage of splash module), and maybe it's not /etc/rc's business.
