You do realize that we mount the MFS as /, then mount the disk under /mnt, chroot to /mnt, then mount the CD in /dist in the chroot and install from there? Are you going to mount the CD as root or something? It is probably a lot simpler to simply let sysinstall always execute in a MFS root. If you really want to rewrite the installation environment, then you might want to talk that over on a mailing list first to get some input. It's not a trivial task. -- John Baldwin <jhb_at_FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/Received on Tue Jul 22 2003 - 10:06:49 UTC
