A test install showed that the known problems with sysinstall on ia64 have been resolved and that the UFS2 support works well. There are no docs yet. All the required ports were built, but ghostscript dumped core. I'll check it out. I also skipped ports for now. It's the intention to have both with RC2. I already started to send patches to ports maintainers. Another action item is that I want sysinstall to either create an EFI partition or check that one exists. We depend on it and it's too easy to forget. I'll try to continue to run releases from now so that process problems are identified sooner rather than later and also to try to get docs and ports working. I'll await further instructions...
