For example, in the partion like this: root@vm:/vm/test # gpart show md0 => 63 6291393 md0 MBR (3.0G) 63 2016 - free - (1.0M) 2079 110502 1 fat32lba [active] (54M) 112581 6178875 2 freebsd (2.9G) root@vm:/vm/test # In the case of VM,it should be wrote in installerconfig: PARTITIONS='vtbd0 mbr { 54M fat32lba, 3G freebsd }; vtbd0s2 bsd { 3G freebsd-ufs / }' DISTRIBUTIONS='base.txz kernel.txz' ZFSBOOT_DISKS='' #!/bin/sh : > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list > https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" > --- Kazuhiko Kiriyama <kiri@truefc.org>
