The disklabel's [A]uto command automagically creates mount points. 1. Non of which has SoftUpdates on by default [beware the bikeshed]. 2. No /tmp (or /var/tmp per tuning(7)). something totaly different: Why no snort in the packages from the ports tree? No password validation when adding users? When clicking "HTML documents" in the "Post Configuration" menu, lynx is auto-installed. It whould be wiser, regarding lynx's long history of security problems, to use other browser or at least get the user's confirmation. On the "User Confirmation Requested" just before rebooting, i quote: "Be sure to remove any floppies/CDROM from the drive". I can't remove the CDROM as it's still mounted. How about "ejecting" it, or unmounting on "yes" and giving the user 10-30 seconds to "eject the CDROM manually"? root password isn't set!!! I gave root password at the correct prompt, but after the reboot I logged in with no "password:" prompt. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
