Mike Smith writes .. :I got dragged away yesterday before I could fix this properly; it :actually requires a bit more finessing due to the way MFS creates a :root-private instance of itself when it nominates itself as root. I :don't want to commit a half-baked fix, so I'm going to ask for a little :forbearance and fix it properly this evening. If you can actually fix the MFS hacks that have been put in over the years to deal with root fs mounts a lot of people are going to be *very* happy with you! It is certainly worth some temporary breakage. I am not happy at all with the rootfsid hacks I made a few months ago but I didn't have time to do anything about it at the time and I had to get BOOTP working again after someone left it broken for a couple of weeks. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
