Specifically, the directory is removed after running 'freebsd-update install' to install the userland updates (after the kernel updates are installed and freebsd-update(8) prompts to reboot and run 'freebsd-update install' a second time). The cause is still not clear, but we are actively looking into the cause. One of the symptoms of this behavior is that daemons using /var/empty as the home directory will not start after the userland updates are installed. A temporary workaround for this is to create /var/empty after the userland updates have completed, but before the system is rebooted the second time, for example: # freebsd-update -r 10.0-BETA3 upgrade # freebsd-update install # shutdown -r now # freebsd-update install # mkdir /var/empty # chflags schg /var/empty # shutdown -r now Apologies for the inconvenience this has caused for anyone running into this.
