You misunderstand. I do not suggest replacing the standard shell with bash, I suggest that the shells available in FreeBSD, even through ports to be linked statically so they can be used for rescue and recovery. If the default make instructions told to compile statically, it wouldn't break the ports. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
