Fire up sysinstall, go to disk menu. At the partitioning screen, if you just hit "w" nothing happens. I would expect the disk to be labeled & newfs'd. If you check the "formatting options" on a partition, and then hit "w", it works as expected. >Fix: No clue. rwatson asked me to send in this PR, so here you go. :) >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
