Hi !
when installing FreeBSD with a boot disk ther is a wonderfull
(half-graphicallly) tool to partition the harddisks and to
create the slices - works great, no problems.

But after installation this tool is no longer available.
Why? This would make life much more easier when further
hd are to be installed or when changing partitions.

I tried to work with the boot disk tool but this is a little
bit dangerous because the installation process is hard to
stop at the "right" place.

I really love my FreeBSD and I daily thank all the people
who did the work. A good "fdisk" tools could be the i-point.

Comments are welcome.
thx

berni
