I know rcvar well enough and that force* feature too, what I don't like is= =20 that sometimes from command line you'll never know if it is a problem with= =20 wrong line in rc.conf or something else... Of course it is good if during=20 boot there is no useless messages scrolling. So, rcvar can't detect if it w= as=20 launched bye rc or from shell?
