    Hi all,

    I just upgraded a couple of my systems to 5.1-REL and have been
    exploring the new stuff ever since.
    First off, I'd like to extend a big thanks to the rcNG people - well
    done, this is so much nicer/better/flexible than the old system! :)

    Then on to the question: there appears to be a number of scripts missing
    from /etc/rc.d, as is very noticeable when running rcorder(8) on them.
    Particularly the 'mountall' script is depended on by a number of other
    scripts. I had a quick look at what 'mountall' looks like on a NetBSD
    box I have access to, and it basically just issues a (u)mount -a.

    Is there a good reason why we don't have mountall? Are all avenues
    really covered by the mountcrit scripts?

    There is of course a specific reason why I'm interested in mountall, but
    more about that later...

    Cheers,
    /Johny
