Hello, Xin. You wrote 20 января 2013 г., 12:32:06: XL> makefs? It is second step. Here are several problems: (1) makefs doesn't create any partition tables / labels. (2) makefs could not "inject" its image into file with partition tables / labels. makefs is good to create FS and make permission fixups (by mtree file,generated with root-less install) in one step, but it doesn't solve whole problem of full disk image creation, as far as I understand. -- // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov <lev@FreeBSD.org>
