I'm sure I saw some problem with that on 8.1, not sure if it's fixed

Dear people,
I have a strange problem. On one system that I am running, I cannot use
sysinstall to do partition/label for a disk. This problem seems peculiar to

When I launch sysinstall, I get some funny message appear on the screen (see

If you're looking to pay a little for this, I might recommend you

They have some great content management features and some wonderful
templates, which are completely customizable. Probably the best way
to see how it works is to view the tour[2].
