--- Comment #14 from Dag-Erling Smørgrav <d...@freebsd.org> --- This is not a matter of a bad default. The kernel is doing its best to tell us the truth about the disk. Based in part on that information, we need to make a policy decision - one of *dozens* of policy decisions the installer makes, don't try to pretend otherwise - to round partition offsets up to the nearest 4 kB boundary. You are asking me to change the underlying mechanism, possibly breaking other kernel or OS components and who knows what else, in order to avoid making a policy decision. That's not going to fly. And once again, gpart is a command-line interface to geom_part(4). It does not have defaults. It does not care about alignment or CHS geometry or any of a number of things that the installer *does* know and care about, so saying "bsdinstall should have the same behavior as gpart" is spurious. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
