autopartitioning for netbsd?
Hi - quick question.
One of the uglier things people have to do when bringing up netbsd on
a vax is partitioning the disk.
- In the process I discovered the RA92 entry /etc/disktab does not match
simh's notion of how big an RA92 is.
- the root parition for most old DEC disks is *way* too small for a
current netbsd install.
I kept thinking there should be a some sort of "auto parition" which
looks at the disk and makes a reasonable guess. Does this exist?
I have half a mind to grab the source to the disk parition editor and
make one. Sort of a simple command line partition wizard. But I keep
thinking this must exist already.
anyone know? am I lost?
