Running sysinstall, I can create a partition and format it. But sysinstall is unable to mount it: Error mounting /dev/da0s1d on /media/disk6 : Invalid argument The same error ocurrs when I try to mount it manually on the command line. I have tried various mount points, to no avail. Anyone have any ideas what is going wrong? Thanks. -- Colin Brace Amsterdam http://lim.nl
