When : they shut down, the DB must still be running (it's taken down last). So : using a *.sh pattern for startup and shutdown scripts doesn't satisfy my : requirements. Right, that's why there's someone doing an evaluation of the NetBSD startup code to see how well it will work for exactly this sort of situation. Until that evaluation/proof of concept is complete, it would be premature to talk about changes to the FreeBSD system since the NetBSD one already copes with exactly this sort of situation.
