I've been using it (on Debian Linux) for decades without any problems. AFAIK, it doesn't do anything pathological like that.

Very common problem. If properly configed, shouldn't things come up in order, with their dependencies already running? Or is specifying boot order not possible on FBSD? I can certainly understand the possible need for SSH, just for incase, but I'd think things could be set to do stuff in the proper order. Except for cyclic dependencies, of course -- a significant bug for the maintainers. -- Glenn English _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
