Like the time it > waits and what OS to make the default. man boot0cfg; it doesn't really have a "default OS" to boot from. It simply picks whatever partition is currently active and that's the default. If you want it to always boot to a certain partition after the timeout, run boot0cfg with "-o noupdate". "-t nn" sets the timeout. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@emsphone.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
