Terranson" To: "'FreeBSD Questions'" Subject: A little xtra info on Diskless problem Date: Tue, 16 Jun 1998 18:18:33 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In desperation, I took all of the rc files and put little markers in them ("echo rc.xxx" here). If I am correct in my understanding, FreeBSD runs all of the various rc.xxx files vi /etc/rc. This means that rc is "first" in the various rc order, but is it in fact the very firt non-kernel thing which is exec'd? Note that rc does NOT exec after the npx probe. Assuming (as I am now) that my problem is with the importation of nfs fsystems (export obviously works, based on both my tests and the fact that the dumb thing has actually managed to boot a kernel), where do I go from here?
