Do you umount all the disks first? If so, any particular order? would you do umount -A and does this cover / also? Would you stop services before or after or not at all, does the o/s stop them for you? Do you use *exit*? Can I just hit the power button? :-) Thanks, Bob -- bmiddaugNOSPAM@sdf.lonestar.org (please remove NOSPAM to reply) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
