Using partition labels is not currently possible without integration of partition labels into the gpart module. The current mechanism that makes labeled devices show up in /dev is unreliable, does not apply to all partition schemes, and may not be present. There were experimental patches from ae@ but unfortunately I do not believe they have been committed. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=169077 From owner-freebsd-sysinstall@FreeBSD.ORG Mon Jun 18 11:08:00 2012 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-sysinstall@FreeBSD.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [69.147.83.52]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 7DBDF1065678 for ; Mon, 18 Jun 2012 11:08:00 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@FreeBSD.org) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (freefall.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::28]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 5E6DB8FC14 for ; Mon, 18 Jun 2012 11:08:00 +0000 (UTC) Received: from freefall.freebsd.org (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.14.5/8.14.5) with ESMTP id q5IB80i1008138 for ; Mon, 18 Jun 2012 11:08:00 GMT (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@FreeBSD.org) Received: (from gnats@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.14.5/8.14.5/Submit) id q5IB7xrU008136 for freebsd-sysinstall@FreeBSD.org; Mon, 18 Jun 2012 11:07:59 GMT (envelope-from owner-bugmaster@FreeBSD.org) Date: Mon, 18 Jun 2012 11:07:59 GMT Message-Id: <201206181107.q5IB7xrU008136@freefall.freebsd.org> X-Authentication-Warning: freefall.freebsd.org: gnats set sender to owner-bugmaster@FreeBSD.org using -f From: FreeBSD bugmaster To: freebsd-sysinstall@FreeBSD.org Cc: Subject: Current problem reports assigned to freebsd-sysinstall@FreeBSD.org X-BeenThere: freebsd-sysinstall@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Sysinstall Work List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Mon, 18 Jun 2012 11:08:00 -0000 Note: to view an individual PR, use: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=(number).

In FreeBSD-9 we saw the introduction of bsdinstall(8) on the release media (a good and great step). Currently in RELENG_9, bsdinstall(8) and sysinstall(8) live side-by-side but in RELENG_10, sysinstall(8) is relegated to the Attic (read: not available). Envisioning a world without sysinstall(8) has highlighted the fact that bsdinstall(8) does not implement the "Configure" menu from sysinstall. This is viewed as a value-drain in functionality w/respect to post-installation configuration routines. Enter bsdconfig(8). bsdconfig(8) aims to meet-or-exceed all functionality provided by sysinstall(8)'s "Configure" menu (for the express purpose of allowing sysinstall(8) to safely _and quietly_ disappear from FreeBSD starting with RELENG_10). Additional introduction from the pkg-descr: === bsdconfig is a robust utility for configuring/managing various aspects of the FreeBSD Operating System. Feature-highlights include (but are not limited to): - Modular, stable, efficient and i18n-compatible. - Easily maintained/extendable sh(1) source/syntax. - Works with both dialog(1) in base and Xdialog(1) from ports (x11/xdialog). - rc.conf(5) configuration/management based on sysutils/sysrc - Timezone configuration based on sysutils/tzdialog - Networking management based on sysutils/host-setup WWW: http://druidbsd.sourceforge.net/ === In this Call For Testing (CFT), I would like anybody/everybody that is familiar with sysinstall to do a comparative test with the thought-in-mind that we are working toward the immediate goal of getting a stable revision into HEAD so we can MFC before the 9.1-R freeze date (scheduled July 2nd). With that, I say no more -- pointing you to the newly-added port... sysutils/bsdconfig -- Devin _____________ The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidential.
