The / solution is wrong. For instance:
[root@piratinga root]# ls -l /usr/local/sbin/ospfd
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 471392 Dec 1 00:58 /usr/local/sbin/ospfd*
[root@piratinga root]# ls -l /usr/local/sbin/bgpd
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root wheel 691952 Dec 1 00:58 /usr/local/sbin/bgpd*
And these are dynamically linked.
Not to mention moving them to / would break the /usr/local paradigm.
And all this because... people don't want to break fs mounting in local
and remote?
I saw break it, and have routing run after local. If your /usr is
remote, then either you'll copy routed (or whatever you use) to a local
disk, or you won't be using it.
People, let's face it. There *ARE* things you want to be run *after*
local fs mount and *before* remote fs mount. And we are hurting
ourselves in a few places just because we haven't admitted to it.
btw, someone mentioned a freebsd-rc list, but I found no such list.
Mispelling? Not freebsd.org list? Delusions?
