Re: RC2 will not make check on OSX 10.3

After about two hours of hunting pecking and anything
else I found where you control this in OSX 10.3

you must edit the /etc/rc  file.

/System/Library/StartupItems/SystemTuning/SystemTuning
  does nothing....

now.. 7.4 RC2 make check  only fails on the geometry
test....

     type_sanity          ... ok
     opr_sanity           ... ok
test geometry             ... FAILED
test horology             ... ok
test insert               ... ok
test create_function_1    ... ok
test create_type          ... ok


I hope if someone searches on OSX (OS X) SystemTuning
they find this....

edit rc... on about the second page  you will find the
settings.

This is  what I  have and it is working... I don't
know if it is optimal..
