To lower the timeout to 1 second in the bootblock menu, run: boot0cfg -t 18 The units are BIOS clock ticks, which are about 18.2 per second. To lower the timeout in /boot/loader to 1 second, edit boot/loader.conf and add autoboot_delay="1" More info is in the boot0cfg and loader manpages. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
