I run FBSD in a vbox, and its only console anyways. I run Debian by default but in any event, there are many reasons for reboots and for me (typically) I see about 4 reboots a month mostly due to patching and sec-fixes. So indeed, YMMV is correct. My fault for the assumption that folks boot more often than not. -- Keep well, Chris <><
