Hmmm... Just looked in /boot No loader.conf in there, but there is a loader.rc ------------------------------------------------------------------------ \ Loader.rc \ $FreeBSD: release/9.2.0/sys/boot/i386/loader/loader.rc 151874 2005-10- 30 05:41:42Z scottl $ \ \ Includes additional commands include /boot/loader.4th \ Reads and processes loader.conf variables start \ Tests for password -- executes autoboot first if a password was defined check-password \ Load in the boot menu include /boot/beastie.4th \ Start the boot menu beastie-start ------------------------------------------------------------------------ So, do I guess right that loader.conf needs creating? I don't have the time to investigate at this moment (at the office, poking the thing via SSH in odd moments, no you can't login at Root, but you can su after logging in as a user of course..) Later perhaps. Regards. Dave B. _______________________________________________ questions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
