Moreover, sysinstall requires devfs on /mnt/dev only if trying to mount filesystems. I've made a patch to do that (and more), and test now (yes, *right now*). If it seems fine for me, I'll post a patch. Current my patch includes: - Use fsck_ffs instead of fsck. As a result, we don't need 'fsck' program anymore, and we don't need 'fsck_4.2bsd' or other links to fsck_ffs. - Use devfs for /mnt/dev (if sysinstall runs as init). sysinstall mounts it, then runs fsck/newfs & mounts filesystems. All goes well, umount devfs on /mnt/dev (if mounted). -- - Makoto `MAR' Matsushita To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
