>Description:
When booting diskless or in RO mode on /etc on, say, a flashdisk one needs to 'trick' the RC script (or rc.d/fsck) to not run fsck, for example by setting 'bootmode' to something oterh than auto in order not to run fsck at all (say cause it is not there).
>How-To-Repeat:
set up diskless boot
disable fsck
watch boot sequence
>Fix:
Some sort of
fsck_enable
override in rc.conf or a special 'ro' boot mode/diskless mode.
