I'm also doing embedded system work on a PC Engines WRAP platform with a CF-based disk, and I'm using custom rc.d scripts for this purpose. Mainly little scripts to enable specific LEDs at the end of the boot process and to copy misc. read-only files from the CF into a memory filesystem during boot. Works rather well, and the documentation in /usr/share/doc/en/articles/rc-scripting was a big help in this regard. -Proto _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
