    If you want set up a parallel service, without modify the file, this option is safe because updates could change the linux script.

    The procedure has little differences.

    1 - You can put the script with a new name, without delete or overwrite the original one, both in the main system folder

    /etc/rc.d

    otherwise, much better and highly advisable on a BSD system, under the software folder

    /urs/local/etc/rc.d

    2 - Open the text editor, copypaste the workaround, and save it with a new name in one of the folders above. You can give the script a new name, but you have to keep the name consistent everywhere inside the script.

    ee /usr/share/etc/rc.d linux_vlk

    3 - Edit these lines:

    Line 5:

    # PROVIDE: linux_vlk

    Line 13:

    rcvar="linux_vlk_enable"

    Line 110

    linux_vlk_start()

    Save (or overwrite) the file.

    5 - Enable two services in rc.conf.
    Open rc.conf with a text editor

    ee /etc/rc.conf

    then set

    linux_enable="NO"

    and add

    linux_vlk_enable="YES"

    also check if these are missing or set different:

    linux_mounts_enable="YES"
    linux_vulkan_enable="YES"

    each entry on a single line, follow the formatting and do not change it.

    Save the changes.

    6 - Reboot
