I have a 4.5 install ISO, and I boot up of it and get ready to install. However, when I go to partition the drive, I am unable to create more than 4 slices, as after the 4th slice (ad0s4) they start to be labelled as X (instead of say ad0s5). Then when I goto install, I get an error about /dev/X not existing.... Its clearly not assigning labels to the later patitions, but why is this? Am I missing something or can it simply not be done? Thanks, Dave Raven. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
