First step was creating partitions with disklabel. There were already some slices from the Mac OS X, most are very small, I assume these are for Apple hardware tests. Slice 5 was the rest of the disc (20 GB), so I assumed this was the OS X partition and have choosen this (ad0s5) for creating partitions with "auto". After creating the partitions the installation aborts with the following error message: "Error mounting /dev/ad0s5 on /mnt: Operation not permitted" Does someone know what this means? Jochen
