I'm trying to set up a diskless x-teminal but I have problems during boot. The kernel (FreeBSD 4.0R/ELF) is loaded and init executes correctly, but when rc executes rc.diskless1 I get the following error: mount_null: vfsload(null): no such file or directory after that rc.diskless2 gives the same error and then it outputs many other messages with the same error: "no such file or directory" from many other programs such as chown, chgrp, chmod for /dev/tty*. At the end it cannot even find ttyv0. If I modify rc so that it drops into /bin/sh I can see /dev and all tty* and devices in there. Even the PATH variable is corrupted, as it shows //bin:... instead of /sbin:... Any hints?
