Bug#686861: debian-installer: kfreebsd requires larger MFS_ROOT
Package: src:debian-installer

Hi,
Graphical install of kfreebsd-amd64 fails when processing
netcfg.templates and/or writing to /var/lib/debconf/templates.dat, with
error "Failed to load installer component: netcfg".
The ramdisk has insufficient space for something, the main-menu process
then crashes, and also core dumps (absolutely exhausting all remaining
space) and gets stuck in a loop trying to restart itself.

The current limit for kfreebsd-amd64 is 64m; I'm not sure yet how large
this will need to be, but probably no more than 128m.
I imagine the limit also needs increasing for kfreebsd-i386 (untested
yet). I guess this problem has been triggered by new debconf
translations being added.
