First of all, I don't think there are many gstripe/gconcat users out there. Gstripe as well as gconcat was introduced after 5.2.1 - there was no FreeBSD release with this code. That's why I think this is not necessary, this is -CURRENT and user can always fix his /etc/fstab on boot. -- Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.FreeBSD.org pjd_at_FreeBSD.org http://garage.freebsd.pl FreeBSD committer Am I Evil?
