Since nanobsd commit probably was the straw that broke the back of the camel: The reason why I disable the beastie menu in some of my nanobsd builds are that a couple of those systems sit with a 2400bps GSM phone as console connection. I'm absolutely certain that I am not the person to judge if the beastie menu is a good thing or not in general, and whatever happens in nanobsd should not be taken as indicative of anything related to user-friendlyness as most nanobsd boxes have no on-line users. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 phk@FreeBSD.ORG | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
