Hello there. I have problem here, and don't know if it's bug or "feature" :) If I prerare boot media (hdd, sd card,usb, etc) with FreeBSD, and NOT create there fstab, I see such behavior: 1. I need enter manually where from mount root (e.g. ufs:ada0s1a or ufs:ada0s1a rw) 2. If I enter ufs:ada0s1a rw - I have / mounted in read-only anyway. <== Is this bug?... 3. If I try to make it rw, with commands mount -o rw -u /dev/ada0s1a / there is no errors, but root is still RO. 4. I can't umount / remount some elsewhere this disk, just to create fstab (it's already mounted and can't be updated). So, is this as-by-design, that you need "any other" media to boot, just to create fstab, or there is "rw" mode broken, or I just missed something? It's very disappointing to be able boot interactively into system, but have no way to "fix" fstab to make it non-interactively bootable :) Thanks. -- Regards, Alexander Yerenkow
