Description Czuczy Gergely 2007-03-10 10:20:04 UTC 
it's a customized freesbie. i'm trying to install a freebsd system via
this disk, and when i'm trying to write out the labels on ad0s1 in
sysinstall (previously i had configured it to installroot=/mnt) it writes
the bsdlabel, and after that runfs newfs on ad0s1a and mounts it to /
instead of /mnt. from this point, the whole system is messed up, reboot is
required.

sysinstall should take into account the installroot option when mounting
freshly labelled partitions.

How-To-Repeat: launch sysinstall, partition and label a disk, specify mount points for
the disk, press w to write it out, and there it goes.
