OK, I see the error in my ways.  My goal is to use file-based
filesystems that are preserved acoss boots.  vnconfig says to
use mdconfig, the handbook suggests that the method I used is 
correct.  But everything is cleared on reboot, which is not 
what I was looking for.

So, what IS the correct way to create and use file-based file
systems? 

And, can I put quotas on them?
