When I did it and tried to bring it up ASAP, the system failed to read hostname variable in the external /etc filesystem. I haven't yet, and probably won't try -- to rewrite the /etc/rc startup to allow it. And I think it's because /etc/rc sources /etc/rc.conf even before it runs.... So how can I start rc and get the external /etc/rc.conf read before rc starts? I'd like to know, if it's possible.
