Description Marcus von Appen freebsd_committer

Port issues (as well as general bugs) can happen in a specific environment. Users should be able to

* select the proper hardware (amd64, i386, arm, ...)
* proper FreeBSD OS version (9.x, 10.x. ...)

and have get an input facility for the output of uname -a. Given that a simple text field for uname -a is provided, Hardware and OS might be considered redundant and could be removed.

I agree.  There is quite a bit of work to go into this.  It actually depends on custom templates to do this (I don't want to add a new field).

What needs to be done and can I assist with anything on that matter?

Is the field for "uname -a" still required or are we good with existing system?

Closing as OBE since Hardware/Version covers most critical part of "uname -a" information
