Hi,
The other day I had an unexpected power outage and then when it was back on
pfsense (1.2 RC2) didn't work.
It booted fine until the point where it wanted to start pfsense. The hard disk
somehow "lost" the symlink for the directory where the configuration file is
stored. I have no idea how that could happen, but all I needed to do is
recreate the symlink and after a reboot everything worked fine.
The problem obviously is, when this happens the symlink has to be created
locally as the server isn't reachable over the network.
Since the code that creates the symlink for the configuration folder and all
other symlinks is somewhere in there, would it be an option to run this code
every time the server boots and simply recreate them every time.
I know this won't solve the problem of the symlink disappearing, but it should
overcome situations where this happens.
