I am trying to install 9.0 on a small notebook on which I have previously successfully installed 8.2. I don't get very far. When defining partitions I have opted for Guided and chosen a drive with enough space (3.5GB), Entire disk. I am then asked if I'm sure I want to proceed, to which I answer "yes". I am then shown the results and invited to "Finish". I'm then warned I will lose all my data. I "commit" and get Bootcode Error Device not configured followed by Error Error installing partcode on partition ada0p1 at which point installation ends. I have searched for these messages with no success... TIA Bernard Higonnet
