            Bug ID: 192927
           Summary: Installer disk partitioner has 15 character limit on
                    mount points
           Product: Base System
           Version: 9.3-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: Needs Triage
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: freebsd-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: matt at conundrum.com

When installing 9.3-RELEASE (also true for 9.2-RELEASE) the installer only
allows 15 characters for naming mount points when creating filesystems.  This
is unnecessarily short.  For example, something as simple as
/usr/local/tinderbox does not fit into this limit.

15 characters seems arbitrarily short.  I would suggest at least doubling that,
if not extending it all the way to whatever the actual limit is on mount names
in fstab.
