Hmm, I hadn't considered a hardware solution. But I think I'll try the [slightly easier] software method suggested by a few of the others first, i.e. reboot rather than shutdown and use /etc/rc to manage the situiation from there. Thanks to all who replied! I'll probably report back on my progress later. -- Cillian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
