>Description:
/etd/rc.diskless1 contains these comments:

# BOOTP has mounted / for us.  Assume a read-only mount.  We must then
# - figure out our IP by querying the interface
# - copy /etc temporarily out of the way to /tmp/etc
# - mount /etc as an MFS
# - repopulate /etc with the saved off copy

and further down:

# Create an MFS /tmp to temporarily hold files from /etc until we
# can bootstrap /etc as an MFS.


Neither of these are true, currently - /tmp is not created until somewhere
at the end of rc.diskless2, and the current /etc is not backupped for sure.

>How-To-Repeat:
obvious :)

>Fix:
Remove the offending comments.
