so do I. And to go a step further: why do we at all have to run this things in single-user mode ? Not that I am not aware of the technical reasons for it BUT: why don't we run both the installworld and the mergemaster jobs in a manner where they only _preparing_ the installation of the update ? ... maybe creating a jobfile which could be run automatically during reboot to make the update instantaneous happen without a long downtime to do it all manually in single-user mode over a slow serial console ? bye, Juergen _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
