An empty label in the partition editor shows up as (null) when modifying the partition. 2. Create a single partition covering the entire disk with a GPT scheme and you get prompted to create a freebsd-boot partition. It displays an error saying there's no space left but displays the freebsd-boot partition in the list. 3. Modifying freebsd-ufs to freebsd-zfs in the partition editor seems to confuse bsdinstall - I know ZFS probably isn't supported. 4. Going back into bsdinstall after installation and going through the steps again failed when it tried to extract (null)/kernel.tgz . It said it was an invalid URL scheme. -- Bruce Cran
