I did a brand new install of 10.1-release on this system using zfs as root and bsdinstall created a /etc/fstab entry for my swap partition that didn't work so when I first booted the system following the installation there was no swap. I had to change the fstab file in order to get the swap partition enabled. This was due to the fact that the fstab had /dev/ada0p2 in it for swap but that device did not exist in /dev. That's really my only point, bsdinstall for 10.0-relese appears to have a problem. Bob -- Bob Willcox | Men who cherish for women the highest bob@immure.com | respect are seldom popular with them.
