It does talk directly to GEOM (through libg= eom) -- but so does the gpart command-line tool. The point is just that all partitioning tools and disk setup tools should have the same default behavi= ors. If we don't like those defaults, we should change them. And, since we contr= ol the whole operating system, we can! Why should we work around bad defaults = in the system in one particular piece of software that people use exactly once= per installed system, but leave the normal tools they use repeatedly set up in a way that can give bad performance? If this is a real problem, we should fix it across the board. Hacking up the installer is not the right solution. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
