Howdie,

	This is how I am doing it

#!/bin/sh
if `/sbin/kldstat -n vn > /dev/null 2>&1`; then echo "vn ready"; else
/usr/sbin/kldload /modules/vn.ko; echo "vn ready"; fi

for i in vn0c
 do
  /sbin/umount /dev/$i > /dev/null 2>&1
  /usr/sbin/vnconfig -u /dev/$i > /dev/null 2>&1
 done

/usr/sbin/vnconfig /dev/vn0c /mountpoint/4.6-install.iso
/sbin/mount_cd9660 /dev/vn0c /mountpoint/4.6-RELEASE
