https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=210722 Bug ID: 210722 Summary: [PATCH] bsdinstall: partedit allows user to modify bootable partition type to non-supported type without warning Product: Base System Version: 11.0-CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Keywords: patch Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: der@semihalf.com Keywords: patch Created attachment 171972 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=171972&action=edit Patch with source code of the change Right now is possible to modify bootable partition type to non-bootable type without getting warning from partedit. Example: if you auto parition drive for arm64, you will get freebsd-ufs as bootable partition; now you are able to change bootable partition type to freebsd-zfs; there will be no warning and the system will install but will not be bootable afterwards. After this fix, partedit will issue the same warning it does when user attempts to create bootable partition of not supported type, notyfing a user about incoming problem and allowing to think the decision over before commiting the schema. This has been tested on amd64 and arm64. Reviewed here: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D6879 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
