+.Sh NAME
+.Nm coda 
+.Nd Coda Distributed File System
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+To compile this driver into the kernel,
+place the following lines in your
+kernel configuration file:
+.Bd -ragged -offset indent
+.Cd "options CODA"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+Alternatively, to load the driver as a
+module at boot time, place the following line in
+.Xr loader.conf 5 :
+.Bd -literal -offset indent
+coda_load="YES"
+.Ed
+.Pp
+To load as a kernel loadable module after boot:
+.Pp
+.Dl "kldload coda"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+kernel module allows the experimental, third-party Coda distributed file
+system client to be used with
+.Fx .
+The module allows the userspace Coda client daemon, Venus, to present the
+Coda distributed file system namespace via the local
+.Pa /coda
+file system mountpoint via the
+.Pa /dev/cfs0
+special device.
+.Pp
+To use Coda, the Coda client software package must also be installed; more
+information on Coda may be found in the Coda documentation distributed with
+that package.
+.Sh SEE ALSO
+.Xr loader.conf 5 ,
+.Xr kldload 8
+.Sh HISTORY
+Support for
+.Nm
+first appeared in
+.Fx 3.0 .
+.Sh AUTHORS
+This manual page was written by
+.An Robert Watson Aq rwatson@FreeBSD.org .
+.Sh BUGS
+The
+Coda distributed file system is considered experimental, and production
+deployment should occur only after careful consideration of the risks of
+deploying experimental software.
