FreeBSD mindcrime.termfrost.org 2.2-STABLE FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE #0: Sun Oct  5 15:59:18 EDT 1997     mandrews@mindcrime.termfrost.org:/usr/src/sys/compile/MINDCRIME  i386

>Description:

	Architecture specific stuff isn't getting run at boot time anymore.
	/usr/src/etc contains an etc.i386 directory, with an rc.i386 file,
	but /etc/rc looks for rc.i386 in /etc isntead of /etc/rc.i386.
	I noticed it when my screensaver stopped working, but for some people
	it could be more serious (i.e. Linux/SCO binary emulation not loading).
	Probably something to fix before 2.2.5 is built.

>How-To-Repeat:

	cp /usr/src/etc/rc* /etc
	configure a screensaver in /etc/rc.conf
	reboot
	watch it not load :)

>Fix:
	
	add "etc.${arch}/" to lines 238-239 of /etc/rc?
