https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=281518 Bug ID: 281518 Summary: [PATCH] bsdinstall: improve pkg installation support in installation media live environment Product: Base System Version: CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: leafoliages@gmail.com Created attachment 253584 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=253584&action=edit patch to usr.sbin/bsdinstall/startbsdinstall This patch improves the support of pkg installation in the live environment. Currently, pkg has to be manually bootstrapped before it can install pkgs in the live env. Since the installation media is often used as a tool for inspecting and rescuing systems, it would be great if users can easily install tools in live env using pkg to their needs. This patch provides a bsddialog menu for pkg bootstrap after "Live System" option is selected from the installer menu. If "Yes", it goes on asking for network configurations, and bootstraps pkg under `/usr/local`. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
