In /etc/rc, rc.i386 is invoked before rc.devfs. This causes moused to fail to
start for those people who use a link from /dev/<mousedev> to /dev/mouse. The
fix seems to be to switch the order of invocation:
# Run rc.devfs if readable to customize devfs
#
if [ -r /etc/rc.devfs ]; then
sh /etc/rc.devfs
fi
# Configure implementation specific stuff
#
arch=`uname -m`
if [ -r /etc/rc.${arch} ]; then
. /etc/rc.${arch}
fi
Hth,
