Sorry! a few more things:

At boot up I get these errors / warnings:
"kenv: unable to get dumpdev"

"no such user: _dhcp, falling back to "nobody""

I left groups and master.passwd files to deal with later in
mergemaster and then I manually added the dhcp user to both of those
files but the system still can't find him.

"Starting default moused: moused: unable to open /dev/ums0: Device busy"

I don't know whats up with that but my mouse does work.
