Re:Re:virtualbox crash

2020-09-29 Thread Jeremy
I am also experiencing this problem after updating to beta 3. It is a hard
lockup and no keys will respond. It requires the computer to be turned off
via the power button. But it definitely looks like an issue with the
virtualbox driver. Normally I disable the drivers from loading before I do
an update but this time I forgot to.

The fixed password is so that you can access the system to install in the
first place. (My comment, for clarity, applies to the live environment you
get with the amd64 .iso installer, for example.)

My opinion is that , instead of specifying a fixed password in install .iso
or .img files ,
ask these password(s) to installer during install .
In that way , live images can be used any time safely  because password(s)
is(are) unknown beforehand and is(are) only valid upto end  of the current
session .

Vaguely related... Something I've been wondering recently is whether
there'd be support for the idea of converting /etc/master.passwd,
/etc/passwd, /etc/rc.conf, and /etc/ssh/sshd_config in install media to
symlinks pointing into /tmp/bsdinstall_etc.

As of today I use mount_unionfs to modify these so I can fire up sshd
inside the installer image live environment, but it does seem like a missed
opportunity to make sshd available usefully out of the box, especially
since the bits are all there already - it's just not possible to make use
of them without some trickery because of the immutable configs.
