--nextPart14633796.z71mBAW5sA Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Disposition: inline Hello, with BETA7 it's not possible to create two slices because sysinstall then=20 marks these two slices active! Another question: Why is sysinstall (and fdisk) reading CHS values to compl= ain=20 about them? I have a NULLed disk (lowlevel formated) and sysinstall complai= ns=20 about wrong geometry, regardless of the BIOS setting. Another problem (which I originaly started in questions@ [MBR not overwrita= ble=20 with dd?]) with fdisk is that it shows a certain partition in the table wit= h=20 a start sector 63 and id 165 on a completely NULLed disk, so there's no=20 partition table and MBR at all. That's not the way it should work is it? =2DHarry --nextPart14633796.z71mBAW5sA Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBBajwOBylq0S4AzzwRAsX2AJ0bLfovQ3a+zEiYbDwtZgTrgzzaZACfRZ2K LK7b8QIkH0YOHkk3QB7+IAI= =0sLo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart14633796.z71mBAW5sA--
