It occurred to me that as long as I had the same version of FreeBSD on the bootable card and in a USB adapter I could boot normally, then mount the system on the adapter card and do a chroot. A quicky and dirty test indicates that might work for what I want to do, which is to: a. modify an application b. add or subtract data files and as a freebie, I seem to get c. ability to change things without rebooting. I will report back after I try this in earnest. Thanks for the feedback. -- -=[L]=- Reassembled from random thought waves old Soviet saying: Only The Future Is Certain, The Past Is Always Changing.
