Soft updates are disable on / by default because of the chicken and egg problem of runing tunefs on /.
If that's the problem, then why doesn't sysinstall enable it by default when partitioning for a new install?
You can certainly change the options in sysinstall to force Softupdates on /
In general, there's little to be gained from it -- on most systems, / is essentially a read-only filesystem, with very little metadata changed except for atime. BTW, IIRC you can certainly 'tunefs -n enable /' while in single-user mode. To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
