Well, this is one of `gotcha' when updating the system with
`make world'.  Files in /usr/src/etc need to be manually copied to /etc,
but the correct locations to copy some of the files may not be so obvious.

In the source tree, rc.i386 IS located in /usr/src/etc/etc.i386.  But,
when installed, it should be in /etc.

Similarly, you should be careful about the following files too.

in the source tree				correct destination
-------------------------------------------------------------------
/usr/src/etc/etc.i386/disktab			/etc
/usr/src/etc/etc.i386/MAKEDEV			/dev
/usr/src/etc/root/dot.cshrc			/root/.cshrc
/usr/src/etc/root/dot.login			/root/.login
/usr/src/etc/root/dot.klogin			/root/.klogin
/usr/src/etc/root/dot.profile			/root/.profile
/usr/src/etc/MAKEDEV.local			/dev

There also are some programs in /usr/src/usr.{bin,sbin} and /usr/src/gnu
which want to install files in /etc.

/etc/rc
