After I sent my message I got curious too. % diff /etc/sysconfig /usr/src/etc/sysconfig On my system (where /etc is the 2.1.0 stuff and /usr/src is 2.1.5) shows the following changes (summarized): conversion to /etc/rc.d startup stuff for local startup options (/etc/rc.local is run if it is present) mrouted=NO (new option to turn off multicast) amdflags (new option) "probably doesn't work" messages removed from quotas and accounting pccard configuration section linux emulation option (load LKM at boot) random interrupts section (looks like kernel support for some sharing of IRQS between HW devices but that's all the clue I have) new startup files, rc.firewall (called from netstart), and rc.pccard (called from rc) Obviously, the files that do something with these have been modified as well, these include /etc/rc, /etc/rc.WHATEVER, and /etc/netstart at least. Interested parties should probably look in the commit logs for the details of the changes. It looks like moving one's configuration details from 2.1 to 2.1.5 is more than just editing the sysconfig file.
