https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=232740 Bug ID: 232740 Summary: The manual page for bectl(8) should cover / and /boot not on same device Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Documentation Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: grahamperrin@gmail.com >From IRC: > [2018-10-16 05:39:27] <kevans91> grahamperrin: *nod* open PRs if you hit bugs, CC kevans@ > [2018-10-16 05:41:30] <grahamperrin> I'm sort of waiting for (or to get my head back around) encrypted ZFS then might start from scratch, maybe with a replacement notebook, rolling bectl into the mix. > [2018-10-16 05:57:05] <grahamperrin> … I sped through the man page for bectl, thanks. If I feel adventurous (at a saner time of day): given my GELI-encrypted boot routine, should I even _attempt_ to create a boot environment? > [2018-10-16 05:59:21] <grahamperrin> Like, I have a very vague long-ago memory of (beadm) boot environments and GELI being not a good mix. Or something like that. My first attempt to create a boot environment failed as shown at <https://pastebin.com/R0kw0jnp>.
