I don't know if it is recommended practice; the fsck is slightly different, but I'm not sure if it matters (I sometimes boot my GENERIC kernel without softupdates and I've never seen anything strang there). > 3: How do we tunefs "/" ? go to single user mode: "shutdown now" remount your filesystem read-only: "mount -u -r /" run tunefs: "tunefs -n enable /" press ^D to return to multi-user mode. >Thanks in advance.. -- Rene de Vries http://www.tcja.nl/~rene; mailto:rene@tcja.nl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
