Or am I mis-understanding? Since no one answered, and this is relevant to running a -stable system, I'll quote the source: /* * Soft updates is incompatible with "async", * so if we are doing softupdates stop the user * from setting the async flag in an update. * Softdep_mount() clears it in an initial mount * or ro->rw remount. */ if (mp->mnt_flag & MNT_SOFTDEP) { mp->mnt_flag &= ~MNT_ASYNC; } So their test used softupdates, but no async. Someone might want to point that out to them. <mike -- Mike Meyer <mwm@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/home/mwm/ Independent WWW/Perforce/FreeBSD/Unix consultant, email for more information.
