FreeBSD 2.1.0 as of last night

>Description:

echo '** Begin system maintainance tasks **'

is gratuitous.  Given all of the crap currently being echoed to the
screen at startup, why do we need yet another line that can scroll useful
information off the top of the screen.

it's just annoying.

>How-To-Repeat:

Boot system
