Until now, I have been using Sysinstall = scripting file but now with 9.1 out I think it's moment to start using = BSDInstaller in the unattended installation process. I have seen the new = installer, works basically like an script=85. my real question is=85 = before I did in install.cfg something like :=20 ################################ disk=3Dda0 partition=3Dall bootManager=3Dstandard diskPartitionEditor ################################ da0s1-1=3Dufs 3072000 / da0s1-2=3Dswap 8096000 none da0s1-3=3Dufs 20485760 /var 1 da0s1-4=3Dufs 30720760 /usr 1 da0s1-5=3Dufs 0 /expert 1 diskLabelEditor ################################ Now I assume there's no way of getting this same through any command = like=85 'bsdinstall partedit _______________________' am I wrong??. So I = assume all should be done by hand like this example of the Handbook :=20 # dd if=3D/dev/zero of=3D/dev/da1 bs=3D1k count=3D1 # fdisk -BI da1 #Initialize your new disk # bsdlabel -B -w da1s1 auto #Label it. # bsdlabel -e da1s1 # Edit the bsdlabel just created and add any = partitions. # mkdir -p /1 # newfs /dev/da1s1e # Repeat this for every partition you created. # mount /dev/da1s1e /1 # Mount the partition(s) # vi /etc/fstab # Add the appropriate entry/entries to your /etc/fstab. In the auto script=85. am I wrong?. If the answer is yes=85 could you point me to some = documentation in order to be able to complete all this doc. Apart from = all this=85 is Sysinstall going to be maintained in parallel?. Thank you very much, Best regards!
