We strive to make install.conf readable, and not contain semi-binary data. Also, the question asked should be specific enough to allow for more than one disk (unless we only do the disklabel for the primary disk?). I haven't put a great effort into it, but I'd rather present a possibility to suck in a disklabel from a separate file and allow the user to point out said file. IIRC, krw@ made some changes that improved that possibility. /Alexander
