Once again, it has nothing at all to do with UFS. Clearly you didn't search the mailing list archives like I said you should. I removed the support from sysinstall because it was *broken* due to changes with geom. It is not a sysinstall thing, it's a "oh look, sysinstall lets you do something that doesn't work anymore" thing. You'd think if the person that made these changes to sysinstall was commenting on the issue, that should clear up any uncertainty. But you can go ahead believing whatever makes you happy. -- randi
