The following reply was made to PR conf/30520; it has been noted by GNATS. From: "Jesus Arnaiz" <jesus@pasapues.com> To: "Peter Pentchev" <roam@ringlet.net>, "Jesus Arnaiz" <jesus@0z0ne.com> Cc: <freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org> Subject: RE: conf/30520: rc files creation problem Date: Wed, 12 Sep 2001 14:05:22 +0200 Ok, I understand. The problem is the system reads all the configuration files when it boots, and if rc.files grows your system boots delay a little. But as you say is not a really problem.
