I am trying to install FreeBSD in slice 2 (WinXP already installed in slice 1), both by 'install.cfg' and manually. All works fine when I use the entire disk, using partitions 'da0s1X'. I can create slice 2, with type 165, but when I try to lay out the filesystems and do the 'commit', I get the following errors: 'Copying return error status of 1!' '/: write failed, filesystem is full' 'installInitial: Couldn't clone the bootfloppy onto the root file system. Aborting!' An emergency shell shows that the device files 'da0s2a' through 'da0s2f' exist in '/dev'. What am I missing? Thanks, Mike. -- Mike Peterson -- Network Security Specialist -- Computer and Network Services E-mail: security@noc.utoronto.ca WWW: http://www.noc.utoronto.ca/ Tel: 416-978-5230 Fax: 416-971-1362
