State-Changed-Why:
I think that there has beem a new way of handling local rc.d scripts
since 6.1-RELEASE. From the rc.conf(5) manpage:
early_late_divider
(str) The name of the script that should be used as the
delimiter between the ``early'' and ``late'' stages of the
boot process. The early stage should contain all the ser-
vices needed to get the disks (local or remote) mounted so
that the late stage can include scripts contained in the
directories listed in the local_startup variable (see below).
Thus, the two likely candidates for this value are
mountcritlocal for the typical system, and mountcritremote if
the system needs remote file systems mounted to get access to
the local_startup directories; for example when /usr/local is
NFS mounted. For rc.conf within a jail(8) NETWORKING is
likely to be an appropriate value. Extreme care should be
taken when changing this value, and before changing it one
should ensure that there are adequate provisions to recover
from a failed boot (such as physical contact with the
machine, or reliable remote console access).
In your case, setting the variable to "mountcritremote" seems necessary.
Please report back if it helps.
