I believe that ``boot -c'' saves your config in /kernel.config (well
that was what I was told, but I've not tried it as I already had a
/kernel.config I made manually under 2.2.8). Anyway, if the settings
wren't in /kernel.config enter them yourself and then add the
following to /boot/loader.rc:

  load /kernel
  load -t userconfig_script /kernel.config
  autoboot
