You don't have to do it in single user mode, I never did. I don't know why it is recommended that one boots in single user in the Makefile, perhaps to get a quiescent system without any users and services that would interfere. But that can also be achieved by stopping the high-volume services on the machine after booting, and on a personal machine (workstation PC) it doesn't matter anyways. Often it's not even possible to boot into single-user, for example if you don't have physical control over the machine (like in a co-lo situation). mkb. _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
