Hiya fellow -hackers@
Many have complained that bsdinstall(8) does only a fraction of sysinstall(8).
This complaint is generally understood to be in-relation to the "Configure" menu
of sysinstall(8).

I have a Parallels virtual machine and it runs FreeBSD 4 through 8 just
swimmingly.
However, in RELENG_9 I notice something different. My once "ad0" is now showing
up as "ada0". However, something even stranger is that devfs is providing both
ad0 family devices AND ada0 family devices.

Looking at bin/164192...
I'm left wondering to myself...
How on Earth did a regression-by-typo introduced in SVN r214735 go 14 months
without being noticed?
Effected branches include:
RELENG_9_0_RELEASE
RELENG_9_0
affected for 2 months and 1 week
RELENG_9
RELENG_9_0_BP
affected
Can someone please take a look at 3 patches I've filed against tzsetup(8)?
bin/164039:

The issue is with the new boot loader menu. It adds many loader variables

Hmmm...
The last change to the FICL word "boot" was 10 years, 9 months ago, by dcs in
version 1.19 of sys/boot/forth/loader.4
ow what you think.
I'm not proposing that we replace tzsetup(8) in the base with this, rather I'm
just asking that a few people could try it out and let me know what you think.
