Nathan,
I took at look at this page:
http://wiki.pcbsd.org/index.php/Creating_an_Automated_Installation_with_pc-sysinstall
and compared it to the man page for sysinstall:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=sysinstall&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+8.2-RELEASE&arch=default&format=html
pc-sysinstall pretty much does all of the same stuff as sysinstall,
and even many of the variable names are the same. pc-sysinstall
seems far superior to sysinstall.
In the timeframe before 10.0, do you think it is worth doing the following:
(1) import pc-sysinstall into FreeBSD
(2) make pc-sysinstall compatible with all the variables from the
*or* if it is not worth doing (2)
(3) provide a document somewhere that guides users in migrating their
old install.cfg syntax to pc-sysinstall (or bsdinstall).
bsdinstall and pc-sysinstall are really good improvements!
pc-sysinstall is already part of FreeBSD, and will be part of the 9.0
release. A manual for migration would probably be a good idea.
