If the disk parameter "DEFAULT" is set in place of an actual device name,
or no disk is specified for the PARTITIONS parameter, the installer will
follow the logic used in the automatic-partitioning mode, in which it
will either provide a selection dialog for one of several disks if
several are present or automatically select it if there is only one. This
simplifies the creation of fully-automatic installation media for
hardware or VMs with varying disk names.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
No functional change intended.
type. GEOM provider names can't duplicate (or shouldn't -- devfs will either
break or only use the first one if they do) so using the first provider
by that name is a sufficient check. This also lets the scripted partitioner
install onto gmirror and geli and such things.
will come soon. This lets the install process have a line like:
bsdinstall scriptedpart 'ada0 GPT {1.5G freebsd-ufs /, 10G freebsd-swap,
auto freebsd-ufs /usr}'
to set up a system with a 1.5GB /, some swap space, and a /usr using the
rest of ada0.
