Right - sysinstall doesn't know it. I usually work around by having 200M /, >=1M swap and 500M /usr. After installation I put the rest into vinum, move /usr and /var onto vinum volumes and resize swap to include the transition /usr. Even if you don't move /usr and /var later - there is no need to create a home, www or whatever partition within sysinstall. -- B.Walter COSMO-Project http://www.cosmo-project.de ticso@cicely.de Usergroup info@cosmo-project.de To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
