Hi
Some trouble in FreeBSD 9.0-beta2 Installer:
a) Infinity loop of Dialog in Network Configuration stage when static IP
selected without default gw:
How to reproduce:
Would you like to configure IPv4 for this interface - (set Y)
Would you like to use DHCP to configure this interface - (set N)
IP Address: (set 10.0.0.1 for example)
Subnet Mask: (set 255.255.255.0 for example)
Default Router: (leave blank)
- After this, installer teleport to select interfaces dialog silenty
b) Installer helpless where GPT table is broken:
How to reproduce:
1) Install fresh system by default (GPT table)
2) Reboot in liveCD mode and overwrite last bytes (where GPT have backup). For
exampe by gmirror label:
gmirror label -v -b round-robin data ada0
3) Reboot with the installer and try install system by default to get a lot of
windows without options:
"Error: Operation not permitted. table ada0 is corrupt"
"Error: Device busy"
"Operation not permtted"
"File exists. geom 'ada0'"
this situation require LiveCD shell with "gpt recover" command
