--Ah40dssYA/cDqAW1 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Hi. A recent commit to -current was done to re-enable the use of sysctl kern.disks by sorting its output in libdisk. This might break sysinstall as it is why the disabling was done in the first place. I have mildly tested sysinstall with the -stable patches, and it seems to order the disks properly. I haven't tested an install or real-life partitioning. Those wanting to do so need to apply the attached patch and rebuild libdisk + sysinstall: # cd /usr/src/lib/libdisk # patch < patch # make clean all install # cd /usr/src/release/sysinstall # make clean all install # /stand/sysinstall Since I am not aware of what precisely the original bugs were, I cannot fully test this. Also, I won't be available to test this in the following few days. I will be back on the 27th and might take my mail sporadically in between. I will stay for a few days and leave again until the 2nd, so I will be available for real testing only then. Thanks for your attention, A. --Ah40dssYA/cDqAW1 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iEYEARECAAYFAjwmX3wACgkQttcWHAnWiGfiDACggshSUBmeFwohh9wfhTprO3MI YgwAmQGVfZ5hXeQKNnVpYB3GY+ThyCUC =alwC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Ah40dssYA/cDqAW1-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-qa" in the body of the message
