 .Sh NAME
 .Nm rc
-.Nd command script for auto\-reboot and daemons
+.Nd command script for boot
 .Sh SYNOPSIS
 .Nm rc
 .Nm rc.local
 .Sh DESCRIPTION
-.Nm Rc
-is the command script which controls the automatic reboot and
-.Nm rc.local
-is the script holding commands which are pertinent only
-to a specific site.
-.Pp
-When an automatic reboot is in progress,
-.Nm rc
-is invoked with the argument
-.Em autoboot .
-The first portion of
+Prior to Mac OS X 10.5, the
 .Nm rc
-runs an
-.Xr fsck 8
-with option
-.Fl p
-to ``preen'' all the disks of minor inconsistencies resulting
-from the last system shutdown and to check for serious inconsistencies
-caused by hardware or software failure.
-If this auto-check and repair succeeds, then the second part of
-.Nm rc
-is run.
-.Pp
-The second part of
-.Nm rc ,
-which is run after an auto-reboot succeeds and also if
-.Nm rc
-is invoked when a single user shell terminates (see
-.Xr init 8 ) ,
-starts all the daemons on the system, preserves editor files
-and clears the scratch directory
-.Pa /tmp .
-.Pp
-.Nm Rc.local
-is executed immediately before any other commands after a successful
-.Xr fsck .
-Normally, the first commands placed in the
+script
+was used to bootstrap the OS. As of Leopard, the system is self-bootstrapped via
+.Xr launchd 8
+which uses the
+.Xr launchctl 1
+bootstrap subcommand to read in launchd jobs from the standard locations.
+For compatibility reasons, the
 .Nm rc.local
-file define the machine's name, using
-.Xr hostname 1 ,
-and save any possible core image that might have been
-generated as a result of a system crash, with
-.Xr savecore 8 .
-The latter command is included in the
-.Nm rc.local
-file because the directory in which core dumps are saved
-is usually site specific.
+script still continues to work.
 .Pp
-Following tradition, the startup files
-.Nm rc
-and
+The startup file
 .Nm rc.local
 reside in
 .Pa /etc .
