As I'm pursuing these matters as well, I've found that mucking with jails is faster, for a lot of bulk work. Starting/stopping a jail is _much_ quicker than reboots. (And it's a lot easier to reset a jail to a prior state.) This won't exercise the rc* scripts, but will let you quickly test for dependancies elsewhere. And whatever you find for dependancies, please document them somewhere; I still have a fantasy of 'deconstructing' FreeBSD into finer-grained packages... > -- > John Birrell > _______________________________________________ -- Brian 'you Bastard' Reichert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 37 Crystal Ave. #303 Daytime number: (603) 434-6842 Derry NH 03038-1713 USA BSD admin/developer at large _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
