            Bug ID: 202181
           Summary: /home missing for auto-UFS install (under UEFI) --
                    unable add non-root user
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.0-CURRENT
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: marcel@FreeBSD.org

An install in Vmware Fusion, configured with the UEFI firmware, and using the
Auto-UFS partition option left the root file system without /home (nor
/usr/home). Adding a non-root user failed (partially) with pw(8) not being able
to create /home/${USER} and populate the user's home directory. The user was
added to /etc/passwd though.
