Bug ID: 293426
Summary: bsdinstall: curses ui: dialogs lack /-search for fast
matches
Product: Base System
Version: CURRENT
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: bms@FreeBSD.org
In bsdinstall, there is no way of quickly choosing a keymap by using
the /-key to perform a character search, as some other installers allow!
You literally have to scroll down manually through the whole list.
This also affects the "Countries" list in Timezone selection.
PgUp/PgDn seem to work on "real" keyboards but not guaranteed in Hyper-V
or other virtual environments.
