Good afternoon, One little question… I'm trying to have ready our new unattended FreeBSD installation system. Until now, I have been using Sysinstall scripting file but now with 9.1 out I think it's moment to start using BSDInstaller in the unattended installation process. I have seen the new installer, works basically like an script…. my real question is… before I did in install.cfg something like : ################################ disk=da0 partition=all bootManager=standard diskPartitionEditor ################################ da0s1-1=ufs 3072000 / da0s1-2=swap 8096000 none da0s1-3=ufs 20485760 /var 1 da0s1-4=ufs 30720760 /usr 1 da0s1-5=ufs 0 /expert 1 diskLabelEditor ################################ Now I assume there's no way of getting this same through any command like… 'bsdinstall partedit _______________________' am I wrong??. So I assume all should be done by hand like this example of the Handbook : # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/da1 bs=1k count=1 # fdisk -BI da1 #Initialize your new disk # bsdlabel -B -w da1s1 auto #Label it. # bsdlabel -e da1s1 # Edit the bsdlabel just created and add any partitions. # mkdir -p /1 # newfs /dev/da1s1e # Repeat this for every partition you created. # mount /dev/da1s1e /1 # Mount the partition(s) # vi /etc/fstab # Add the appropriate entry/entries to your /etc/fstab. In the auto script…. am I wrong?. If the answer is yes… could you point me to some documentation in order to be able to complete all this doc. Apart from all this… is Sysinstall going to be maintained in parallel?. Thank you very much, Best regards!home | help
