closer to doing "the right thing".
The structure is now the following:
* /etc/rc (from MFS) loads the rest of /etc and /root from
/fd and then from floppy (if present), then transfers control
to /etc/rc1
* /etc/rc1 loads defaults from /etc/rc.conf.defaults, tries to
set the hostname basing on the MAC address of the first ethernet
interface, and then sources /etc/rc.conf and /etc/rc.conf.local
for local configurations
* The rest of the startup process is then performed (rc.network and so on).
Everything except the initial /etc/rc (from MFS) can be overridden with
a local version loaded from floppy. But in most cases, you should only need
to customize the following files in /etc:
rc.conf rc.firewall hosts
Previously there were a number of inconsistencies in the calling
between files, and also a lot of clutter in rc.conf and rc.firewall.
Also, "rc1" was called "rc" and would overwrite the initial /etc/rc
from MFS, making it really hard to figure out what was going on in
case of bugs.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you have to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
