This is proably happening because your /var is failing the writability test in /etc/rc.d/var. One situation I can of where this could happen and you would otherwise have a valid /var would be if you have a read-only NFS root and an NFS /var. In that cause /var wouldn't be mounted yet because mountcritremote wouldn't be run yet. Is this or something similar the case for you? You can try setting varmfs="NO" and populate_var="NO" in /etc/rc.conf to disable this script. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
