Hi, Something seems magic in freebsd: I am looking for what does start sysinstall at boot time when I boot from the installation CD. The only thing related to systinstall is the setting of the init_path variable in the loader.rc file but it is in comment thus the loader should finish by launchinig init as usual so what does make it launch sysinstall instead? I also examined /etc/ttys which is used by init but this file is standard and I do not find anything that could tell init to start sysinstall instead of getty! As you may guess, my goal is to create an customized installation CD in order to install a network appliance wich embedds freebsd. Sincerily, Joel Levee
