I had some nice changes that I made but decided that I should hold off (and then I subsequently lost them, long story). I've switched jobs and only now have had time to resurface. I'm very interested in this as well. I'll be installing a current box and will be tweaking the rc.d system. Although, I don't have the unemployed status, I'm still interested in the development of this. Here's my big question. Do we try to maintain our boot order? Or are we going to go with the boot order as presented by the NetBSD stuff? -gordon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
