In most cases, the system restarts with a cot clean d= ismounted "/" root filesystem. Another box, also most recent CURRENT, very offen ends up = at the console complaining about unclean /tmp filesystem (bot systems do have a GPT layout= and UFS/FFS filesystem for the OS/base system). On "/" and "/tmp" as well as "/var" I have enabled soft-updates and journal= ing (S + J). I'd like to ask what the official FreeBSD recommendation would be to that m= atter. I have disabled for now journaling, looking whether it will help to solve the prob= lem or not. Box number one (first box I mentioned above) is a gateway system, operating= with PPPoE and this seems to make problems when crashing (power loss) or "reboot"-ing the = box (normal "shutdown -r now" works fine). Disabling the PPPoE facility makes the syste= m more robust against power failure/reboot "rougeness". Please CC me. Are there any suggestions for UFS/FFS regarding S+J were to enable and were= better not to eanble?
