I dont say bsdinstall is run every time I boot. I said "the bsdinstall scripts still remain on the new installed system." The point I was making is it should not remain. I think that is pretty debatable, you could certainly use them to install onto a new disk - say you had a machine you couldn't boot the install media off so you put the disk in your PC. Also, it should be very difficult to destroy your installed setup while you're actually booted into it because GEOM will prevent partition changes to mounted disks. -- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum GPG Fingerprint - 5596 B766 97C0 0E94 4347 295E E593 DC20 7B3F CE8CReceived on Fri Sep 23 2011 - 11:55:53 UTC
