Hello all.

I tried to install FreeBSD 2.1 on: 
IDE cdrom, 486 80Mhz, 8M ram, 408M drive
I divided the disc into 20M for Dos (to access IDE cdrom) and remainder for
FreeBSD.

The problems:

After going choosing "Novice" option:

a) Warning: swap space not configured!
	Novice already set 20M for swap space!

b) Unable to make new root file system on /dev/rwd0a!
   command return status 1

	The disk configuration is correctly detected at 1002/16/52.

Many thanks to all suggestions.
Chinh
