Subject:   [10.0RC2] partition labels during install
Message-ID:  <201312221025110645.0060D808@smtp.24cl.home>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help

I just installed 10.0RC2 on a test notebook (dmesg at the end of
this message) to start becoming familiar with the changes it
brings.

During the install, while I was in the Guided partitioning part
of the install, I specified a label for each of the partitions
to be created.  (I suspect this feature was available in earlier
versions, but this is the first time I've used it)

After carefully typing the various labels into the install
screen, I then completed the install process and allowed the box
to reboot.

My next step was to check fstab to see if the labels had taken
hold.  This is what I saw:



# cat /etc/fstab 
# Device        Mountpoint      FStype  Options Dump    Pass#
/dev/ada0p2     /               ufs     rw      1       1
/dev/ada0p3     none            swap    sw      0       0
/dev/ada0p4     /var            ufs     rw      2       2
/dev/ada0p5     /tmp            ufs     rw      2       2
/dev/ada0p6     /usr            ufs     rw      2       2




Hmmm... so then I checked to see if the labels had been created
in /dev



# ls -al /dev/lab*  
ls: /dev/lab*: No such file or directory




So now I have the question --- what is the purpose of allowing
me to type in labels during the install process?  Where do they
"show up" after the install is complete?


Thanks.
