I installed 2.0.5-ALPHA with floppy disks dated around noon on
on June 4. I'm happy to report that it works. And the bad144 support
is complete for the first time in FreeBSD's history (bad144 -s has never
worked on my UltraStor 12F ESDI controller before). Thanks for the great
work! I have just a few comments:
1. Though my Wangtek QIC-02 tape drive works, when I selected Tape media,
the install program reported that no tape drives were found. So I had
to use File System media and extract the tape manually via the shell.
2. For File System media installation, it would be nice if there is
a prompt before the install program attempts to extract the files.
This gives the user a chance to put the files there via the shell.
3. The entry for / in /etc/fstab is still /dev/wd0a instead of the slice
notation. This is just a small inconsistency.
4. The disk labels created have both the RPM and interleave values
set to 0. In addition, the fsize, bsize, and bps/cpg values of UFS
partitions all show up as 0.
