Hi,
I am using:
$ uname -a
FreeBSD utterlux.communityconnect.com 4.1-STABLE FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE

root@utterlux.communityconnect.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/UTTERLUX i386
Though I cvsup'ed a while back, I just got to 'make installworld'
yesterday. (work has been busy) Anyway, I rebooted this morning and found
that it is basically ignoring my /etc/rc.conf file. It ignores the
firewall type I setup, my default route, the fact that I have a
mouse. etc. (It does this consistantly on each reboot)
This same thing happened to me before the last time I cvsup'ed to
4.x-stable. I thought it was just that I did something wrong. So I was
expecting doing it again, now that I have updated a number of
other machines sucessfully, that it would work again.
'make buildworld' 'make installworld' and mergemaster (Done completely by
hand) went through without a hitch. I don't quite understand what is
wrong. But it will do this to me every time I reboot. (Which,
admittedly, is infrequently.)
Anyone else had this problem? I havn't sen it mentioned on the list.
Here is my /etc/rc.conf file if it matters:
