System: FreeBSD wabbit5.ldc.ro 5.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT #1: Sat Apr 19 23:25:02 GMT 2003 root at wabbit5.ldc.ro:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/WABBIT i386

>Description:
The background fsck process started from /etc/rc logs to syslog using this format:
Apr 20 00:20:13 wabbit5 root: /dev/ad0s3d: 116 files, 218 used, 64189 free (45 frags, 8018 blocks, 0.1% fragmentation)
The "root:" label is a little misleading, so I am suggesting a
change that would make the above line look like:
Apr 20 00:20:13 wabbit5 fsck: /dev/ad0s3d: 116 files, 218 used, 64189 free (45 frags, 8018 blocks, 0.1% fragmentation)
>How-To-Repeat:
Boot the machine with dirty filesystems and watch /var/log/messages.
>Fix:
Apply the following patch to /etc/rc (or /usr/src/etc/rc):
--- rc.orig Sun Apr 20 00:27:24 2003
+++ rc Sun Apr 20 00:38:06 2003
