Can I change the NanoBSD options from command line without affecting GUI?

Just wondering whether it breaks the GUI if I make the changes manually from commandline like:

boot0cfg -v -s 1 da0s2

jimp

No that should be OK, the current boot slice and such is read dynamically.

Why do you need to set that by hand though?

There is /etc/rc.nanobsd_switch_boot_slice to do that for you at the CLI.

1. Because of an accident happened to me once while upgrading. I accidently switched off power strip almost at the end of an upgrade needing me to switch the boot slice.

2. I am more comfortable with command line. ;-)

There is /etc/rc.nanobsd_switch_boot_slice to do that for you at the CLI.

Thanks for the pointer, jimp.

BTW what is the command line script to change to rw mode?

/etc/rc.conf_mount_rw and /etc/rc.conf_mount_ro makes me feel easy. :-)

Thanks, Steve! :-)
