After a HD crash I was forced to reinstall FreeBSD again, I noticed a few things. 1. In the /usr/share/skel files, the umask is set to 022. With the default adduser configuration the umask should be 002. This allows the idea used in the adduser program (giving each user its own group) to actually work. 2. The ppp lkm is broken. Another person reported this problem to me, and I observed it also. So it existed in both 2.2.1-RELEASE, and 2.2-970422-RELENG, the excact error was: (it would reach this error after modem connecting and before trying to set /dev/cuaaX -> ppp0) ioctl(TIOCSETD): Operation not supported by device. The error disappeared once pppd support was in the kernel with the excact same pppd configuration files. 3. No option to mount extended DOS partitions in install. I am aware that sysinstall uses a different msdosfs driver then FreeBSD, but the ability to install from an extended partition would only help. And thats about it.
