around anyway. > Space is the main reason. The mini system still has to fit on small install media. If you look at the install floppy's, you will see that they have to prune the kernel to make it fit. That job will get more difficult or maybe impossible if the mini system gets larger. I'm sure it is mentioned somewhere. Of course they can make a different mini system for bsd.rd. But again, more work and you get two different mini systems. gr Renzo

I can imagine that the power button uses something which act the same like "kill -KILL" and thus capable off killing X. hope this helps. gr Renzo ps I'm running a current build from 4-26-12
