sorry, i didnt recognize that rc.conf is included after rc.diskless1 is
executed.
so i put my local daemon setup in a other script run by rc via diskless_mount.
one thing additional:
if i start my diskless machine the hostname is already set, cause
option host-name
is included in my dhcpd.conf.
shouldn't a hostname specific section exist in /conf
maybe like
for i in default ${bootp_ipbca} ${bootp_ipa} `hostname`; do
if [ -d /conf/${i}/etc ]; then
cp -Rp /conf/${i}/etc/* /etc
fi
done
