I have a few years experience with Linux and would like to extend my knowledge now to the BSD*s. Hopefully my question is not too stupid so that somebody can point me into the correct direction. Anyway here we go... During the FreeBSD installation I would like to pass parameters to the programm which creates the filesystem *newfs if I understand that correctly. I would like to pass the following options: nosuid, noexec, userquota & groupquota to some partitions. Whatever I do - even when I want to pass only a single option - I get as a error message "Invalid argument" 1) Are the above options "nosuid, noexec, userquota, groupquota" valid options to be passed to the installer programme newfs or do I have some misspells here ? 2) How would I separate several options in the installers input screen after pressing "G", by komma (,) by semicolon (;) or just by space ( ) ? I did search the mailing lists up and down and consulted my book from Michael Lucas and googled, but somehow I didnt find the answer. I would appreciate any replies.
