Hello. I'm trying to install freebsd 6.2-STABLE to usb device. After installation done successfully and reboot i getting messages like this: Invalid slice Invalid slice No /boot/loader FreeBSD/i386 boot Default: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel boot: typing "da(0,a)/boot/loader" and many other variants had no success. Also i tried to install manually, allocating full disk for bsdlabel slice - same result. My motherboard is asus a8n-sli premium, and it is capable of booting from usb. Recently i successfully installed and booted opensuse from the same usb device. Is there any solution to make freebsd boot from usb device? PS as usb device i mean my usb flash and ata disk with external case, i tried both of them. -- Vladimir K. aka WaW
