Since you obviously care enough to reply and wonder about what I'm doing, I can happily let you know.
I was trying to configure the network while running bsd.rd. I figured I could reuse netstart when I spotted this bug. The bug is that the second part of the expression breaks when sysctl returns nothing. The solution could be to split just that expression out and use test. Now that I have explained the bug and the solution, it's on you to fix it. I have already moved on. Cheers. ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Friday, October 8th, 2021 at 12:48 AM, Klemens Nanni <k...@openbsd.org> wrote: > On Fri, Oct 08, 2021 at 05:15:36AM +0000, bm1les wrote: > > > The first problem is the lack of correctness; that should be enough. > > > > The second problem is that such command actually breaks when run using > > bsd.rd. > > netstart(8) has nothing to do in or with bsd.rd, whatever you do: > > you own all the pieces. > > Either you manually run /etc/netstart during the installer (who knows > > why) and/or you run a kernel without IPv6 support. > > At this point, we don't care -- don't waste time with such mails lacking > > any trace of reasoning, justification or explanation.
