Subject:   Can Sysinstall now deal with 2 FBSD partitions?
Message-ID:  <3CE511EA.624B9494@pythonemproject.com>

I had an older version of -stable and tried to install the -Current
developer release image via my already installed -stable version.  (I
could boot from the cd, but then its kernel didn't recognize my CDROM
drive.)  So I proceeded with /stand/sysinstall, created a new partition,
and labeled it, and then installed -Current from the CDROM source.  But
it went and overwrote my old partition instead of installing on the new
partition.  So I cvsup'ed back to -stable.

Now I see that sysinstall has extra functionality.  I am wondering if
the latest sysinstall can deal with multiple FBSD partitions?  If not,
this seems like a very basic need that is not there.
