Good afternoon,

One little question=85 I'm trying to have ready our new unattended =
FreeBSD installation system. Until now, I have been using Sysinstall =
scripting file but now with 9.1 out I think it's moment to start using =
BSDInstaller in the unattended installation process. I have seen the new =
installer, works basically like an script=85. my real question is=85 =
before I did in install.cfg something like :=20

################################
disk=3Dda0
partition=3Dall
bootManager=3Dstandard
diskPartitionEditor

################################

da0s1-1=3Dufs 3072000 /
da0s1-2=3Dswap 8096000 none
da0s1-3=3Dufs 20485760 /var 1
da0s1-4=3Dufs 30720760 /usr 1
da0s1-5=3Dufs 0 /expert 1
diskLabelEditor

################################

Now I assume there's no way of getting this same through any command =
like=85 'bsdinstall partedit _______________________' am I wrong??. So I =
assume all should be done by hand like this example of the Handbook :=20

# dd if=3D/dev/zero of=3D/dev/da1 bs=3D1k count=3D1
# fdisk -BI da1 #Initialize your new disk
# bsdlabel -B -w da1s1 auto #Label it.
# bsdlabel -e da1s1 # Edit the bsdlabel just created and add any =
partitions.
# mkdir -p /1
# newfs /dev/da1s1e # Repeat this for every partition you created.
# mount /dev/da1s1e /1 # Mount the partition(s)
# vi /etc/fstab # Add the appropriate entry/entries to your /etc/fstab.

In the auto script=85.

am I wrong?.  If the answer is yes=85 could you point me to some =
documentation in order to be able to complete all this doc. Apart from =
all this=85 is Sysinstall going to be maintained in parallel?.

Thank you very much,
Best regards!
