Hi all,
  Here's another oddity.  I am running the machine fine, I run setup,
install, add packages and recompile the kernel.  Upon reboot, any changes
that I made to ethernet cards remain so all is fine.  However, I then go
into rc.conf.site (where did this come from anyway?  Why can't we just edit
rc.conf like usual??) change a few values, and reboot.  Upon reboot all the
stuff is reset to defaults and I have lost my initial configuration.  It is
almost like the thing is reading it's defaults from /etc/rc.conf, and
writing its results to rc.conf.site?  Anyone else see this happening?

I am running 3.0-STABLE (CVS update on kernel, 2/6/1999).  I have also seen
this happen on another 3.0-STABLE box (full CVS update, 2/8/1999).

Ben Gavin
