>Description:
I'm trying to use <<disklabel -A -T ...>> to auto partition a disk
with most of the disk assigned to / but also with some swap.
My first attempt was:
/ *
swap 1G
Unfortunately "*" isn't valid. My next attempt:
/ 1G-*
swap 1G
created two 1G partitions (a=/, b=swap) leaving most of the disk free.
My next attempt:
swap 1G
/ 1G-*
did assign most of the disk to /, but with a=swap and b=/ things
didn't end well.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
My workaround was to use:
/ 1G-*
and ignore swap.
