Q1, is there a way to create a ficl binary from /sys/boot ? Q2, is it okay to have one /boot directory shared between CURRENT and RELENG_X ? Q3, other then learning Forth, any tips? I was hacking away at beastie.4th but everytime I create a new menu entry and disable another one, the loader either panics or has BTX crash. so having a ficl binary can make life just a little easier I think. ps. please CC me -- Kimi
