Of course, you can also start and stop daemons, ifconfig | down/up etc. But FreeBSD boots rather quickly now, except maybe for | your ata delay issues. The ata delay is a pain, but unavoidable apparently. I can't find any way to remove it. I just don't understand why this happens recently, but not before. If I ever changed firewall rules, or something similar, I could shutdown then restart multi-mode. Now it hangs when I try this. | | Take care, | | Greg | | | _________________________________________________________ | Do You Yahoo!? | Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com jcm -- o-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-o | ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jonathon McKitrick ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ | | "I prefer the term 'Artificial Person' myself." | o-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-o To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
