Hi Kris,
The errors seemed quite unworthy of mentioning because there was really
nothing quite specific to the disks, but I will do it anyway. I have
run through another attempt at installation and here are the msgs I get
after the commit...
On Main Console:
No root device found - you must label a partition as / in the label
editor
[I press Enter]
No swap devices found - you should create at least one sap partition
.... blah ..
[I press Enter again]
Couldn't make filesystems properly. Aborting.
On vtys - Alt+F2:
DEBUG: ioctl (3, TIOCCONS, NULL) = 0 (Success)
DEBUG: Add mapping for /dev/cuaa0 to sl0
DEBUG: Add mapping for /dev/cuaa1 to sl0
DEBUG: Scanning disk ad0 for root filesystem
DEBUG: Scanning disk ad0 for swap partitions
And that's it. I have checked all the vtys, and the msg is the same.
Best regards,
Odhiambo Washington
