>Description:
Add /etc/rc.d/freebsd_update script:
If 'freebsd_update_enable="YES"' is set, the script installs already-fetched
updates on boot, but before securelevel is raised. This makes updating trivial:
# freebsd-update fetch (or freebsd-update upgrade ...)
# reboot (and if it's an upgrade, another reboot)
This is trivial, but it makes raising securelevel in rc.conf much more
attractive. Updates can be fetched by cron and a simple reboot installs them
without the administrator having to drop into single-user mode or lower
securelevel temporarily.
freebsd_update_enable defaults to "NO"
>How-To-Repeat:
Apply the attached patch and set 'freebsd_update_enable="YES"' in rc.conf.
If there are updates available to install during boot, they will be installed.
