Create the file /etc-mount and give it the following contents: #!/bin/sh /sbin/mount /dev/ada0pX /etc exec /etc/rc $* 2. Make sure to substitute the right device file for the mount command. 2. Make /etc-mount executable: chmod a+x /etc-mount 3. On the root filesystem, let /etc/rc be a symlink to /etc-mount. This is just off the top of my head. It may work, or it may not work.
