/usr/src/sys/conf/NOTES says: # 2. In /boot/loader.conf, set the tunables kern.maxswzone, # kern.maxbcache, kern.maxtsiz, kern.dfldsiz, kern.maxdsiz, # kern.dflssiz, kern.maxssiz and kern.sgrowsiz. Is loader.conf in some sort of different world than sysctl(8)? Shouldn't I be able to at least view the current settings using sysctl? I understand these are things which may have to be set in stone before the kernel starts running proper. Just want to see the current value. # sysctl kern.maxssiz sysctl: unknown oid 'kern.maxssiz' Show how can a view the current setting and confirm my messing with loader.conf took hold? -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@HiWAAY.net ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad.
