Subject: Re: Debian GNU/kfreebsd Installation Guide: Installation from HDD
Oh, I'd LOVE to be helpful on that, but...
So far I can only submit my corrections to the part of the manual that I just
mentioned.
Besides, I'm yet to learn how to write patches...
And other things you mentioned I haven't yet tested :)
OK, I'll see what can be done.
Regards,
Kostya Berger

I had made calls for fixes on debian-bsd, but very few people could help
to fix things (and they had little time available to spend on it).

Ideally, please send a patch against
svn://svn.debian.org/d-i/trunk/manual
(modify the en/ directory, don't necessarily care about the xml stuff,
I'll handle that). You can check the result yourself by going to build/
and running
./buildone.sh kfreebsd-i386 en pdf
for instance, and see the result in build.out/
If you could take the time to fix the whole manual, that'd be helpful :)
Basically, what needs fixing is at least:
- hardware support
- boot procedures
- configuring encrypted volumes
- supported partition options
- recommended partition scheme
- device names
- an equivalent to linux devices
