Thanks Eric, just to check...
Am I correct in thinking conf files in /etc/sysctl.d and /etc/rc.conf.d folders are unaffected by this change?
Thanks,
Steve

Only 2 files will be affected /etc/rc.conf and /boot/loader.conf, and the update will not override them, only add to it.

The Switch runs FreeBSD, making it Nintendo's first console with a real multitasking OS. While this won't matter much at all to end users really, it's still kinda neat. BSD is super-stable, a small kernel (beneficial for mobile and limited-resource embedded systems), and has excellent networking features baked in. Buy facebook accounts
