I can't really see why this fails, so I will have to set up a test environment to reproduce the problem. I hope to get this done tomorrow.

That is, does sysinstall itself set all the rc.conf variables it is supposed to? Just to be sure: Your package contain a script like the "post" script script from the PXE article, but set the conf variable directly to /etc/rc.conf, correct? --=20 Simon L.
