hi,

i've been wondering long time what's the actual state of procfs in freebsd.

yes, i added procfs line to fstab but i do not mount it automatically at
system startup.
yet i'm still able to use ps(1) unlike the originator of this thread.
how come?

i believe i've read somewhere that (use of) procfs was dropped or
something and freebsd does not use it anymore. if so, i'm asking why and
then why did the originator of this thread have problem running ps(1)
without procfs mounted?

many thanks for clearing this.

regards,

martin
