I use autoinstall(8) with a CRYPTO disk and yes I compile my own bsd.rd to do it. You can start by looking at install.sh in src/distrib/miniroot. > Does anyone have tips on how I could pass instructions to 'bioctl' and whether > or not an encrypted hash of the password (such as with 'encrypt -b 8 password' > could be fed into this and work? For bioctl you'll probably want to use "-s" to read the passphrase from stdin. You can't feed it a hash, it will just use that hash as the actual passphrase.
