Subject:   problem using mount_null (diskless boot)

I'm managed to get a bit further in to the diskless
boot sequence.

When rc.diskless1 runs it creates an MFS filesystem at
/conf/etc.
I have inserted a 'mount' command into rc.diskless
after this point to confirm that this MFS is being
created successfully.  It is.
next in rc.diskless1 there is a 'mount_null' command
that tries to map /conf/etc to /etc.  This is failing
for some reason.

This is the error message that comes up on my console:

mount_null: vfsload(null): No such file or directory

I'm using FreeBSD 4.1R.  Can anyone help me sort out
this problem?

Thanks,
Paul
