This looks like a good addition to rc.conf(5). A description of what the inventor(s) intended when adding rc.conf.site and rc.conf.local to the system.
> Typically I use 'sysinstall' exactly once in one machine's lifetime. > My old method of dealing with 'rc.conf' and 'rc.conf.local' was: > => sysinstall generates a modified rc.conf mv rc.conf.site rc.conf.local > => cp /usr/src/etc/rc.conf rc.conf > => vi rc.conf.local > delete all the lines not suitable for rc.conf.local > > after making a new world: diff /etc/rc.conf /usr/src/etc/rc.conf > => have a close look at the 'diffs' and check if any of the > changes conflict with my current rc.conf.local. or, if there are any additions needed to my rc.conf.local. If there are diffs, cp /usr/src/etc/rc.conf /etc > > Now, with 'rc.conf.site' I just don't have to bother with rc.conf > after a fresh installation. I would just move rc.conf.site to rc.conf.local > and then procede as earlier mentioned. > tomdean To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
