Wel... finally, i low-level formatted my drive with a program i got from
WD, i have a wd harddisk.
But still sysinstall crashes on wd3, he says that he read 65556 heads and
so on from the partition table,....??????
Impossible! Anyway, i send you the mail before but i dont understand why it
was possible to install fbsd the first time without problems of sysinstall
crashing, i tryed the same things i did back then, but nothing works.... i
really dont like it.
At this moment, it seems that this is the end of freebsd for me!!!
Really i hate that, linux has no problems, linux just partitions the disk
and works with it, but i dont want to work with linux!
Really, i think we got a weak point of freebsd crashing, why does linux
read the disk well and bsd crashes on it? (that is sysinstall crashes!)
Can anyone tell me what i can do about this?
Is there any, any way to install bsd now if sysinstall keeps crashing. If
this keeps beging so, i will have to switch to openbsd i am afraid, that
install just fine like linux.. Does anybody ever had the same problem?
Sincerely,

Reinoud.
