            Bug ID: 276174
           Summary: mkuzip creates images with an invalid startup script
           Product: Base System
           Version: 14.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: billblake2018@gmail.com

The mkuzip documentation says that you can just run the script at the start of
an image it creates to mdconfig and mount the image.  Those scripts don't work,
for two reasons.  First, the /dev/md0.<suffix> are created with a suffix of
uzip, which is not what the scripts expect.  Second, the .uzip images are
ordinary read-only file systems, mounted with /sbin/mount; the script is trying
to mount them using mount_cd9660, which isn't likely to work.
