I wanted to set up an installerconfig script to avoid the tedium of entering information. I have a tendency to shuffle systems around and it's nice to be able to do a quick load when I want to. I was having some trouble with it, but turns out I was over-thinking it. Setting up an installerconfig script turns out to be quite simple. With Debian I have to jump through lots of hoops to automate an install and it's complicated. So now I have a script that works well. It loads a base system hands free in like two minutes.
The one thing I can't figure out how to do is preserve a partition. Don't know it it's even possible. Does anyone know how I can preserve my last partition (ada0p4) while using the installerconfig script? Below is the partitions line I'm using;

Code:
PARTITIONS='ada0 GPT { 512K freebsd-boot, 80G freebsd-ufs /, 4G freebsd-swap, auto freebsd-ufs /archive }'
