ystems. I think that, for cohesiveness and sanity, all
filesystems should be mounted at the same time, with the mount script
simply calling `mount -a`. Otherwise, we have to wory about mount-var.sh
and mount-rest.sh.
If we want to mount pccard stuff from fstab, we should do something like
the smbfs scrip
lows us to start, say, nfsd.sh, knowing full well that
mountd is running, without worrying about some dependency checker trying
to start a new mountd.
This is a relatively minor issue, and I am sure there are a million
equally valid (or more so) solutions to the problem. This is why I leave

New "modules"? Isn't that just the same as /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ ? I side

.0.1 sources, I will take a look at
how they handled the ioctl. Unfortunately, I do not know enough about
the design of the FreeBSD kernel to go poking in there; if XFree86 4.0.1
can't offer some hints on the right way to handle things, I'm fresh out
of ideas.

THAT'S an idea. I would love to see some fancy screensaver put to good

Ugh. I think we need a better solution than the Xilinx software. It's
absolutely horrible. They should stick to electronics and leave the
software design to those who know what they're doing.

So I guess we can see that I understand a good portion of how soft
updates works in theory, but I've never bothered to learn how all this
allows data to be written to disk...

Use the slice number equal to the partition number in linux. For
instace, if Linux saw the disk as sdb6, use da1s6 in FreeBSD.

ch means it was pre-FreeBSD (indeed, even
pre-Linux!), but the main focus is 4.3BSD, which makes many aspects
still relevant. I am finding it to be an interesting read. It does some

To Uns
ngled, and I like the way things are done
now. For instance, take the partitioning process. If the average Windows
user is too clueless to format a hard disk partition, imagine the same
person trying to edit the master boot record using fdisk, and then
creating a disklabel for a new slice. But I like h
grams are divided logically.
There's 17 reasons for you. I'd come up with more, but I'd need to close
