I am sure there is a simple answer to this, but I just can't seem to find it documented anywhere. My root / filesystem on my FreeBSD 2.0-RELEASE system was corrupted, and booting was impossible. I of course turned to my trusty FreeBSD boot floppies to run Fixit!. I re-fdisk'ed, used disklabel to assign the mountpoints for swap and /, and (P)roceeded. That all went great, and I was able to fsck my / partition to fix all the problems. HOWEVER, now when I reboot it keeps taking my into sysinstall! I can't make init launch rc instead of sysinstall. What do I need to change to make init launch rc instead of sysinstall after running Fixit? -Andrew
