How to configure FreeBSD so that an iSCSI initiator will mount a filesystem on an iSCSI target at boot time? The /boot/loader.conf file has 'iscsi_initiator_load="YES"' but iscontrol does not run at boot time. I believe iscontrol needs to run after the kernel module is loaded but before a filesystem in /etc/fstab is mounted. This works fine manually, but a reboot fails because the FreeBSD box doesn't run iscontrol at boot time, and thus can't mount the filesystem on the iSCSI target. Pardon me if this has been asked before, as it seems like a standard problem, but I couldn't find anything in recent freebsd-scsi archives or in the man pages. I asked on freebsd-scsi about 10 days ago, but never got a response. The initiator runs a generic FreeBSD 8.3-RELEASE/amd64 kernel. Thanks! dn
