>Description:
sysinstall duplicates all comments at the end of line so rc.conf
becomes unreadable soon, although it remains correct from the /bin/sh
standpoint.
>How-To-Repeat:
Enter /stand/sysinstall, do not do anything, exit. Browse /etc/rc.conf, enjoy.
>Fix:
I have an awk/sed script which I run every time when rc.conf
gets corrupted.
