The system now raises the kernel's security level at the end of rc - This caught me out at one point while trying to install a new kernel in a multi-user system (chflags failed)... Is there anywhere I can get more info about the security levels etc. - and what they effect? (something not too technical would be nice) - I track -current, though I don't remember seeing it being discussed much...
