 Subject: Diskless ignore remount - fix (Re: conf/158127: [patch]
 	remount_optional option in rc.initdiskless doesn&#39;
 	t actually work)
 
 I notice that PR 158127 remains outstanding, June, 2011.  I've enclosed a
 patch for Stable 9.0, to correct diskless booting.  When a mountpoint
 fails, the failure may be ignored as required/documented.

 The patch has been tested with/without /conf/default/etc/remount_optional &
 is functionally correct. 
 
 It would be appreciated if someone would verify and commit.
 
 Regards, Dewayne.
 PS My apologies if Outlook has corrupted the patches appearance,we have to
 work with what we've got.
