Maybe he can > comment about plans for sysinstall in -STABLE? Sysinstall in -current has a problem. The sysinstall command has boot0 and mbr images inside. But, since it is used installed binaries in /boot at making usr.sbin/sysinstall, the sysinstall command has old boot image(s) even if boot0 and/or mbr is modified. Moreover, it breaks cross-building like building for alpha binaries on i386 box, building for pc98 binaries on i386 box, etc. I posted a patch to resolv this problem. Please see the following thread. http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=55656+60763+/usr/local/www/db/text/2001/freebsd-current/20010930.freebsd-current Please don't MFC moving sysinstall before this problem is resolved.
