NAME
brc – Plan B boot script

SYNOPSIS
brc

DESCRIPTION
After the kernel boots, it execs /boot (see root(3)), which in turn execs /$cputype/bin/bns. bns(8) sets the $service environment variable to terminal, starts the dynamic namespace facility of Plan B, auto–declares volumes for / and usr and finally, after mounting itself using namespace.planb(4), invokes the brc script to bring the system up.

This script starts appropriate network processes and administrative daemons and services.

This file reflects the configuration of the system.

In general, a Plan B brc starts the network, any local file system, and whatever local volumes are present for the machine. It also sets the machine location.
