I'm attempting to install FreeBSD-2.1.7 from an extended DOS partition, your notes suggests this is possible using the following command " mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s2 /dos_e". "wd0s2" is my extended dos partition, "e" is the logical drive I created solely for FreeBSD distribution files. Logical drive "d" I use for WIN3.1 and "c" is my primary dos partition. I used the mount command at the initial Boot: prompt when the boot disk loads up. The extended partition appears on the fdisk screen but not on the Label editor screen. When I attempt to install I get the message " Error Mounting Dos patition /dev/wd0s2 : invalid argument (22).
