Greetings,
I installed 4.7 on a machine last weekend. This machines main purpose is
just to be a mysql database server. Do you have to do anything special
to run it without a monitor (space considerations) ?
Its handy to enable serial console access. Add -Dh to /boot.config
and in /etc/ttys
ttyd0 "/usr/libexec/getty std.9600" vt100 on secure

And one more minor point, albeit potentially important.
If the machine won't have a keyboard attached and will be administered remotely, turn off keyboard warnings in the BIOS.
Can you tell I once wondered why a server never came back after buildworld and 'shutdown -r now' ?
