In OpenBSD there is at least an afterboot(8) man page that Well, if you were one of those FreeBSD users who actually read the instructions telling you to run /stand/sysinstall again if you wanted to do any post-installation configuration (or if you even read through the menus a bit more carefully your first time through), you'd do that and then visit the Documentation menu. The Documentation menu would auto-load lynx when you asked for any of the HTML docs listed there and voila, there would be the docs without you having to know anything. This has all been supported for several years now and people have been using it rather significantly for a feature you claim we don't have anything like. :-) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
