most of our servers are pxeboot'able/dataless. since we rely heavely on NFS - ie. /usr/local - I set early_late_divider to amd (the automounter), and made sure it runs early enough. Probably because we have been running NFS since V0 (pre automount too), booting machines was a nightmare, I refuse to have nfs mounts in fstab. danny _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
