I do appreciate the reply. Thank You!

I have a question...This option is already unremmed in the
/boot/defaults/loader.conf......

Should I understand that if a "/boot/loader.conf" file exists......that
the "/boot/defaults/loader.conf" file is ignored?

I would appreciate the clarification in how "loader" works.



Sincerely and respectfully,


Dave
