Install FreeBSD utility is buried (and not adequately documented) #348

Open jordanhubbard opened 2 years ago

Describe the bug See https://hellosystem.github.io/docs/user/getting-started.html

It references "use the FreeBSD installation utility" but does not explain where this actually is. After searching, it is revealed under System -> Applications -> Utilities which is unnecessarily buried for a user who has booted the ISO in order to actually install the OS.

To Reproduce See above. Just boot the ISO and you will see a blank screen with no obvious next step.

Expected behavior See how Ubuntu Desktop or any other Linux installer works. You boot the ISO, it jumps you to the installation utility. Easy.

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Thanks @jordanhubbard. As a quick fix I have added the full path to the documentation. The installer can also be reached by clicking on "Search" in the menu bar and typing "inst"...

TODO: Consider symlinking the installer to /Applications/Autostart on the Live ISO. (Remove this at install time.)
