LiveCD
>Description:
on live CD

/etc/resolv.conf is a sym link to /tmp/bsdinstall_etc/resolv.conf

Great, except /tmp/bsdinstall_etc does not exist by default on a live CD

If I want network and name resolution then I have to create the directory, then edit resolv.conf and then dhclient <nic>.


>How-To-Repeat:
use live CD
>Fix:
LiveCD needs to have /tmp/bsdinstall_etc directory created and exist
