Is it possible to execute a command during boot before mounting root file
system? You see, I need to disable DMA mode for HDD by "sysctl -w
hw.atamodes=pio,pio,---,---", but if I edit rc* files with this command
it'll be executed during boot only after root ffs mounted. May be I should
edit "load.conf" in /boot dir?
Thanks.
