Install FreeBSD with mfsBSD

[fcgoo]

1, download mfsbsd iso
http://mfsbsd.vx.sk/
download it according to your arch (i386 or amd64)

2, boot into mfsbsd

3, ftp to get 8.0-RELEASE install files

mdconfig -a -t swap -s 160m -u 10
newfs -U /dev/md10
mount /dev/md10 /var/tmp
mkdir -p /var/tmp/8.0-RELEASE/{base,kernels,manpages}   # ftp to get files into these dirs

4, my personal install shell script, save and run it, modify the shell script according to your need

partitions assignment:
a - /
b - swap
d - /usr
e - /var
md0 - /tmp

#!/bin/sh

disk=ad0

cat << _BSDLABEL > savedlabel.txt
8 partitions:
#	size	offset	fstype

### create OS slice and partition label 
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/${disk} count=1 bs=512
fdisk -BI ${disk}
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/${disk}s1 count=16 bs=512
bsdlabel -w -B ${disk}s1
bsdlabel -R ${disk}s1 savedlabel.txt

### format OS partitions
newfs /dev/${disk}s1a
newfs -U /dev/${disk}s1d
newfs -U /dev/${disk}s1e

### prepare OS mount points
mount -v /dev/${disk}s1a /mnt
mkdir -v /mnt/usr /mnt/var
mount -v /dev/${disk}s1d /mnt/usr
mount -v /dev/${disk}s1e /mnt/var

### extract OS files
( cd /var/tmp/8.0-RELEASE/base
export DESTDIR=/mnt
sh install.sh
cd ../kernels
sh install.sh GENERIC
cd ../manpages
sh install.sh
cp -R /mnt/boot/GENERIC/ /mnt/boot/kernel/ )

### final configure
cp fstab.txt /mnt/etc/fstab
cp rc.conf.txt /mnt/etc/rc.conf
cp /mnt/usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Shanghai /mnt/etc/localtime
touch /mnt/etc/wall_cmos_clock


echo
echo chroot into newly installed system to change root password and/or adduser
echo run command newaliases as root after first reboot

5, finalize your install

chroot /mnt /bin/tcsh
passwd                 # change root password
adduser                # add normal user
#... other things you want to do
exit                   # exit chroot environment
umount /mnt/usr /mnt/var /mnt
reboot

ok, enjoy your newly installed freebsd.
