Re: shutdown messages and boot messages about which service was started

Hello Matias,
I am using drm-61-kmod (package). My repo is FreeBSD: { url: 
"pkg+http://pkg.FreeBSD.org/${ABI}/latest" }

I changed the repos as you said in 2 release_2 pkg repo
with your proposed settings and install it with:
pkg install -fr FreeBSD_release_2 drm-kmod. Afterwards pkg update, pkg 
upgrade
There were updates and upgrades. All is well.
Then I rebooted the system, but there are no messages about shutdown or 
services
on the screen. So I used my repo again and remove the
FreeBSD_release_2 drm-kmod.

What is the difference to your repo settings? I pretty new to FreeBSD.

Thanks a lot to you
Manfred
