I am trying to use sysinstall to add a second hard disk as per the
freebsd-faq, as I find using disklabel manually confusing.

I select Expres mode, create the partition with fdisk, write it out then
quit. That bit is fine, then sysinstall pops me into disklabel where I create
just one new partition the size of the drive (sd1s1) with a mount point of 
/usr/ports.

When I select w to write to disk then hit return to say yes, sysinstall puts
up a dialog " Copying initail device files.." Segmentation fault (core dumped)

According to the FAQ you are meant to be able to press q to exit
after doing the write to disk, this is not the case.

The sysinstall is compiled from a fresh sup of -current today.
