Yeah it was dicided a while ago there were too many problems with it, and a lot of newbies were getting burnt by the option... I personaly thought it should stay, maybe more hidden, but still there... But some new bios's wouldnt boot off them and stuff like that... Besides it was a messy hack in the first place, and not really any advantage given by it besides some neatness... I liked it, but I can see why it was taken out :) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
