hi

i'd find this intresting, too.

in addition i'd like to decrease the 10 seconds that it gives me for
entering boot options to about 1 or 2 seconds.

i'm using freebsd4.4 on a pc just for cd burning, bought a notebook and
wantet to keep my 16x scsi writer so i assembled that pc just to go up as
fast as possible, write some cd's and go down again every 2 or 3 days, or
course there's no monitor attached to it, so it would be very usefull if it
got up a little faster and powered down itself, because after typing halt in
my ssh terminal i can only guess that it shut down properly when the hd
stops making noise.

thanks
