Is there a FreeBSD command similar to the Linux arch command? I have built a fairly decent Bourne shell script to run just after installing mfsbsd on a target system. It figures out the likely boot drive, formats it and then begins to build a FreeBSD system on it. The script could intelligently ask for the 64-bit or 32-bit trees if it could determine whether it was running on the i86 or 64-bit system. Thank you.
