Thanks Wes.  My rc.conf is not too different from yours.    I do have 
ssh disabled, at least until I get this working and I don't have 
local_startup.  I'll give that a try though.  I'll probably be 
re-reading the documentation tonight to see if I've missed anything and 
take another stab at it tomorrow.  Too bad there isn't anything (that I 
know of) to allow stepping through the boot process.

Thanks again for all the help.
