I've reached a bit of crossroads while trying to install with the automated installation. I'm trying to do a minimal install from an extended DOS partition. I downloaded the bin a floppies subdirectories from freebsd.org and created the boot floppy. Everything was going smoothly until it told me I needed to assign some disk labels before I could proceed with the installation. I assumed that meant I needed to do some type of format or create the file systems, but I wasn't sure. I selected the auto option from fdisk to create my slices, but I guess I missed something somewhere. Since freebsd recognized my hardware, something Linux would never do, I'm eager to get it installed. A little assistance would be appreciated. I didn't see an installation mailing list, so I apologize if I mailed this question to the wrong list. Grant Lewis - lewisg@sims.net or lewis@mail.scra.org
