I've just started playing with the router version of PicoBSD 0.41. The whole
startup procedure has me a little perplexed. There are a bunch of rc files,
rc.conf, rc.firewall, rc.network, etc., but none of them ever seems to be
sourced during startup. oinit.rc seems to run, which sources rc, but that's it.
The loopback interface gets configured in rc, but since nothing ever runs
rc.network my ethernet interface never gets configured.

I've tried to add some of the "normal" rc.conf stuff to rc, but the result was
always a hung system, so I suspect that there are things I don't understand
about the way startup is supposed to work here. I could just manually run
everything from rc, but that doesn't seem right--somehow the other rc files
should be brought into the process.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Chris
