Trying to configure a bridge interface with two member interfaces, fxp0 and re0. Configuring the interface from scratch manually works fine but when I add config entries to rc.conf the two member interfaces aren't added at boot. Bridge0 is created it just doesn't have any members. From the serial console I can manually add the two member interfaces and everything is fine but obviously I'd like it to work without manual intervention. Any ideas? Here's my rc.conf entries: cloned_interfaces="bridge0" ifconfig_bridge0="addm fxp0 addm re0" ifconfig_fxp0="up" ifconfig_re0="up" ifconfig_bridge0="inet 10.0.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up" Any ideas? Troubleshooting is bit of a pain as I'm booting zfs root from a USB stick and there's a 5 minute (yes, 5 minutes!) delay at the BTX loader before the boot loader menu is displayed. I haven't figured out what's causing that but it makes tweaking and rebooting a slow process!
