I've enclosed a patch for Stable 9.0, to correct diskless booting. When a mountpoint fails, the failure may be ignored as required/documented. --- /tmp/rc.initdiskless 2012-06-19 19:01:33.000000000 +1000 +++ /etc/rc.initdiskless 2012-06-19 19:02:16.000000000 +1000 @@ -166,7 +166,7 @@ chkerr() { lastitem () ( n=$(($# - 1)) ; shift $n ; echo $1 ) mountpoint="$(lastitem $2)" - [ -r $mountpoint/remount_optional ] && ( echo "$2 failed: ignoring due to remount_optional" ; return ) + [ -r $mountpoint/remount_optional ] && echo "$2 failed: ignoring due to remount_optional" && return case $1 in 0) The patch has been tested with/without /conf/default/etc/remount_optional & is functionally correct. It would be appreciated if someone would verify and commit. Regards, Dewayne. PS My apologies if Outlook has corrupted the patches appearance,we have to work with what we've got. ----- End forwarded message ----- _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-rc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
