I don't recall reading about any /dev/rad0s2a .... or is that just a =
typo & you really meant=20
/dev/ad0s2a ??

As far as I know IDE drives have "ad0sxx" type names & SCSI ones have =
"sd0sxx" type ones ..
maybe you problem is as simple as a typo ??

  Dear All,

  I'm still cannot create partition at OS freeBSD with error message:
  " Warning ! unable to swap to /dev/ad0s2b : invalid argument this may =
couse the installation=20
    to  fail at some point
    if you dont't have a lot of memory. "

  "Unable to make new root  file system  on  /dev/rad0s2a
    command returnet status 1 "
