I upgraded a machine from 2.2.1 to 2.2.2 and went through a lot of grief over getting rid of sysconfig and using the "new" rc.conf file. Now I just installed 2.2.2 fresh off the ftp server and there's no rc.conf, just a sysconfig. Why didn't it create an rc.conf on a totally new installation? Which do I use now? Why is my head throbbing?
