I'm curious as to how the best way of having a script run before and after
make would be done. Would this require modification of the FreeBSD make
template, or is this functionality already built in?
The goal of this is to set up a script that prior to a build sends up a
filesystem in ram (tmpfs)
As the original poster of this thread, I can also say that Doug is
correct. The issue is not rc, it is the actual kernel boot process.
Maybe I could see rc becoming an issue in a massive server environment
where there are a lot of userland processes to start, but that delay
would most likely
