I started editing the disklabel using the standard install method. Surpisingly it seemed that there were no partitions on the disk (I know there are some). As I pressed D, I got a message that sig 11 was caught. Same result when pressing N. I turned on the debugging and retried. Same results. On VTY2 there were ONLY the following lines: DEBUG: ioctl(3, TIOCCONS, NULL) = 0 (success) DEBUG: Signal 11 caught! That's bad! I'm not so much worried about installer crashing, even though it is impossible to get FBSD installed at the moment, but more worried about debug not producing more verbose report. >How-To-Repeat: Reboot and start the installer again. Try to edit the disklabel as mentioned. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:home | help
