Hello!

/etc/rc checks $1 against "autoboot" after it runs /etc/rc.diskless1. But as
the latter uses "set" command, it clears the command line, and so /etc/rc
fails to check for autoboot mode, so it doesn't run fsck, and so fails to
mount local filesystems (for example, I have /tmp mounted locally).

Regards,
    Anton
