I'm using a VPS service. I installed FreeBSD 8.1, and now configuring.
And today, I found really wired thing.
This is my disklabel editor screen from sysinstall.
FreeBSD Disklabel Editor
Disk: ad0 Partition name: ad0s1 Free: 0 blocks (0MB)
Part Mount Size Newfs Part Mount Size Newfs
---- ----- ---- ----- ---- ----- ---- -----
ad0s1a <none> 512MB *
ad0s1b swap 987MB SWAP
ad0s1d <none> 1517MB *
ad0s1e <none> 512MB *
ad0s1f <none> 16951MB *
The following commands are valid here (upper or lower case):
C = Create D = Delete M = Mount pt. W = Write
N = Newfs Opts Q = Finish S = Toggle SoftUpdates Z = Custom Newfs
T = Toggle Newfs U = Undo A = Auto Defaults R = Delete+Merge
Use F1 or ? to get more help, arrow keys to select.
sysinstall run from running FreeBSD box. This is not installing. I can't understand how is this working now! I even installed some packages!
%pkg_info
ca_root_nss-3.12.4 The root certificate bundle from the Mozilla Project
curl-7.20.1 Non-interactive tool to get files from FTP, GOPHER, HTTP(S)
gettext-0.18_1 GNU gettext package
gmake-3.81_4 GNU version of 'make' utility
gmp-5.0.1 A free library for arbitrary precision arithmetic
libiconv-1.13.1_1 A character set conversion library
perl-5.10.1_1 Practical Extraction and Report Language
sudo-1.7.3 Allow others to run commands as root

I don't know hardware configuration of my VPS service. Is this normal? Please explain this to me how it's working now, and how should I handle this.
