>Description:

sysinst only handles 1 disk.  What I want to be able to do is, for exmple:

put / and some swap on sd0
put /usr and some more swap on sd1

but sysinst only allows you to specify 1 drive for an install.  

it would be good to allow for setting up disklabels on multiple disks and
have sysinst then newfs the appropriate ones.

	
>How-To-Repeat:
install with sysinst on a machine with >1 drive, note you have to pick
1 or the other

	
>Fix:
don't know.
