https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D276517 Bug ID: 276517 Summary: disklabel(8) crash Product: Base System Version: 13.2-RELEASE Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: dgy@engineer.com Running the LiveCD option of the "bootonly" iso on an Atom 330 1.6GHz with 4G of RAM (I am assuming disklabel(8) executable on "bootonly" media is same as relea= se) Alter "8 partitions" to reflect "10 partitions", as desired. Only fully specify 9 of them -- a-i. Exiting disklabel complains about j -- which I had not specified (uninitialized structure member, perhaps?). Reedit to specify j. Disklabel(8) complains of stack overflow and abends. Return to "8 partitions" and delete the 'i' entry. Installer complains that 'h' (the 8th entry) has an invalid type -- dspite being the same (4.2BSD) as the other non-swap partitions. Note that resorting to manual partitioning was an expedient as the installer is really clunky when it comes to this. (but, while NetBSD's is much friendlier, it still leaves a lot to be desired!) I've not pursued this as it is likely easier for me to port the package I'm interested in to NetBSD than to try to ferret out all the differences in FreeBSD since I left the camp (decades? ago).
