Dirpref is not something which is "enabled" or "disabled", not in the same sense as softupdates is "enabled". Dirpref is a smarter layout of information in a partition. You need a version of the system which knows HOW to do that smarter layout, and then you just rebuild the partition. There is no switch to turn on and off. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = [EMAIL PROTECTED] Senior Systems Programmer or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
