Created attachment 163784 [details] openjdk8.diff The pkg-message for openjdk8 suggests adding two fstab entries. But when using a separate boot partition (or boot pool with a standard ZFS configuration as proposed by the installer when using encryption) adding them can lead to the system booting to single user mode (see https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/11-current-boots-to-single-user-with-fdescfs-linprocfs-in-fstab.53163/#post-298637). Either loading fdescfs(5) (and procfs(5) but that is part of GENERIC) from /boot/loader.conf or adding the late option fixes the problem for those systems AFAICT (see attached patch). This also affects the pkg-message of shells/bash.
These are almost direct copy-and-paste from fdescfs(5) and procfs(5). https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=fdescfs&manpath=FreeBSD+10.2-RELEASE https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=procfs&manpath=FreeBSD+10.2-RELEASE I don't see any reason to change the message. :-/
(In reply to Jung-uk Kim from comment #1) I'm not sure if you missed the significance of the 'late' flag and the very good response to the post on the forum. It sounds like a simple update to the mount option suggestions, either this or a note about the particular issue experienced by the op on the thread could save people a lot of fishing around for an answer.
(In reply to Andrew Smith from comment #2) > could save people a lot of fishing around for an answer Yes, that was the reason for opening this PR. (In reply to Jung-uk Kim from comment #1) > These are almost direct copy-and-paste from fdescfs(5) and procfs(5). So you're saying that fdescfs(5) and procfs(5) need an update too? ;-) If nobody wants this please reject it and let's close this PR. Don't leave it hanging around forever. I consider > 6 months too long for stuff like this. The cost of changing it is so low. It's not like changing a pkg message will break any functionality.
