    I did that. This is not the case. If you run "gmirror help" when
    gmirror is not loaded, it does not load the module and it prints out a
    helpful list of things. If you do this on the fixit CD, it prints out
    a list of four commands: help, list, load and unload.

    Additionally, I loaded the kernel module manually from
    /dist/boot/kernel/geom_mirror.ko and this did not change the behaviour
    of the command.

    Dave.
