sysinstall problems upgrading from stable to daily latest



As I was doing sysinstall against https, nycdn... NetBSD-daily, I experienced an issue that I don't know how to process:

When I picked the destination, I chose wd1, the disk where I installed the system (I didn't read carefully or I might have chosen "current system"). The installer then did an fsck on rdk1 and failed. I reran it and it succeeded, so I went on with the upgrade. At the end it complained about umount failing on / and I gather that's because I am currently running the system. After rebooting, things seem to work properly.

I asked on irc and it turns out that rdk1 is a raw version of something called a wedge that corresponds to a partition? Anyway, mount shows dk1 as being /.

All in all, I wonder if choosing "current system" is the answer to both problems - maybe it won't fsck rdk1 and won't try to umount /. Is this correct or do I have a real problem with my rdk1?

Thanks,

Will
