Description Noah Gintis 2002-04-27 21:37:05 UTC

/etc/rc.conf says that you can comment out CONSOLEFONT to remove consolefont 
support. However, if you do this, /etc/runlevels/boot/consolefont displays an 
error message during boot. Either the error message should be deleted to match  
rc.conf's comment, or rc.conf should say to "rc-update del consolefont boot" if 
you do not want consolefont support. Workaround: "rc-update del consolefont 
boot" instead of commenting out CONSOLEFONT in rc.conf.

Or am I missing something?

Fixed rc.conf on CVS.
