            Bug ID: 215911
           Summary: automountd fails with strange error on config parse
                    error
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: mat at FreeBSD.org

After an update to 11.0, automountd would not start:

# /etc/rc.d/automount start
Assertion failed: (path[0] == '/'), function create_directory, file
/usr/src/usr.sbin/autofs/common.c, line 136.
Abort trap (core dumped)

It was because of an unfortunate merge leftover from freebsd-update,
/etc/auto_master's first line was "========".

It could say something a bit less intimidating.
