The variables are defined in the loader manpage (not > loader.conf, which only describes the syntax). So I didn't read the loader manpage closely enough. I read about loader.conf, but apparantly that wasn't right. Thanks for the help! /andreas === Emacs = mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Americans have different ways of saying things.

Re: How to decrease the loader wait-time?
Just add the following line to your /boot/loader.conf: autoboot_delay="SECONDS" and set the time in seconds for SECONDS.

How to decrease the loader wait-time?
Hi! I've been staring at the beastie during startup quite a bit now. Even though he is a handsome chap to stare at, I still think 10 seconds each boot is a bit to much. Can someone tell me how I configure the loader to decrease the time delay? I kind of figured it would be found in the Handbook, I haven't found it. Pointers welcome. Thanks. /andreas === Emacs = mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] "Americans have different ways of saying things.
