Hello. I am rather new to FBSD5.3. I did a custom install leaving some room on my (ata) hard disks. Later I decided to create a separate /usr/obj partition. I started /stand/sysinstall and tried to create a new slice and a new partition in it. Sysinstall reported that it cannot write to the hard disk. Next I only tried to create a new partition inside an existing slice. The same again. I tried the same manually with fdisk/bsdlabel and the same happens. I tried it in single user mode and even booted FREESBIE. Always the same problem. I must be doing something simple very wrong. But what? What f*cking manual did I not read? Is there some secret geom rdonly switch I have to turn off? (BTW: securelevel is at -1) Thank you, Norbert
