--xXmbgvnjoT4axfJE Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable On some diskless 4.x systems, I've got the following patch in place to let me do things before and after rc.diskless2 does it's stuff: Index: rc.diskless2 =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D RCS file: /usr/cvs/src/etc/Attic/rc.diskless2,v retrieving revision 1.5.2.14 diff -u -r1.5.2.14 rc.diskless2 --- rc.diskless2 23 Dec 2002 17:39:06 -0000 1.5.2.14 +++ rc.diskless2 24 May 2003 00:33:22 -0000 @@ -51,6 +51,10 @@ . /etc/rc.conf fi =20 +if [ -r /etc/rc.diskless2_pre ]; then + . /etc/rc.diskless2_pre +fi + # If we do not have a writable /var, create a memory # filesystem for /var.

What's the right way to do this in the rc.d world? It seems like I could add more scripts which will run before and after rc.d/diskless, but I don't understand rc.d all that well.
