Subject:   Invalid argument while mounting /usr partition during install
Message-ID:  <34140CAD.41C67EA6@istar.ca>

Hi.  I am trying to install FreeBSD 2.2.2 on a NEC 6010H with a 1.4GB
HD.  I can get my hardware successfully configured. But, once my
partitions setup and I select "Q" to continue I always get the error:
Error mounting /mnt/dev/wd0s1f on /mnt/usr: Invalid argument.

I have tried many different things including decreasing the size of the
partition with no success.  Here is how I have the slice partitioned:

wd0s1a  /         32MB UFS Y
wd0s1b  swap     105MB SWAP
wd0s1e  /var      30MB UFS Y
wd0s1f  /usr    3359MB UFS Y

FreeBSD is the only OS on this drive and the newfs commands have been
left at their default (newfs -b 8192 -f  1024.

Any suggestions you may have would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Troi.
