They're exactly the same. MD5 (/usr/src/etc/etc.i386/rc.i386) = ff93f3c32dc1b80e8fd53c81910d3618 MD5 (/etc/rc.i386) = ff93f3c32dc1b80e8fd53c81910d3618 My previous message was somewhat misleading though. This in fact began a few days ago when CTM src-2.1.0124 first came out. I updated the files in /etc to match the recent changes in /usr/src/etc, recompiled the changed binaries and the kernel and rebooted, and that's when the problems began. I didn't send out that message until I had remade world, recompiled the kernel, rebooted, and saw that the problem persisted.
