After creating bsd type and creating each partition size it does not add allocated sizes together to keep from allocating more space than available on hard drive. You can select finish and it will try to do the install to the hard drive and issue error ran out of space. It returns you to the Partition editor but does not allow the size field to be changed. Have to restart the install from scratch again.
Even when using the Partition editor for the initial time can not modify space field. This is for sure a BUG. To be more user friendly should have option to use sade utility to allocate the 8.x style disk partition layout. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
