In the days of 1,5-2,0 > terabyte harddrives, UFS2 + SoftUpdates simply doesn't cut it anymore, UFS2+SoftUpdates works fine on properly configured UFS2 - and very fast. Why you need sysinstall AT ALL? use any CD/DVD distro like FreeSBIE, or even better - the one that loads itself to RAM and no longer needs HDD, or even FreeBSD already installed on Pendrive. Boot it, then partition/newfs your disk(s) whatever you like, mount target, then use install.sh scripts from FreeBSD install CD to install system this way DESTDIR=/target ./install.sh in every directory then install bootblock and edit fstab, your system will boot. Sysinstall is to help beginners, but do beginners need so complex setups?Received on Tue Jun 09 2009 - 12:36:32 UTC
