Here is the beginning of my rc.log:

# cat rc.log
[/etc/rc starting at Mon Sep  5 22:34:10 UTC 2016]
[running rcorder]
[running /etc/rc.d/wdogctl]
[running /etc/rc.d/fsck_root]
Starting root file system check:
/dev/rwd0a: file system is clean; not checking
[running /etc/rc.d/modules]
[running /etc/rc.d/resize_root]
[NOTE: Output from /etc/rc.d/resize_root is not logged]

I looked through all of it, but resize_root is only here at the  
beginning.

Kind Regards,
Al
