Hi there, After pulling my hair out for a few hours, I deduced this may be a bug in the installer and/or mount/newfs in general in 4.3-RC3/4. The testbed machine for this as follows: HP NetServer LH Plus 1x PPro 200 256mb ECC Mylex DAC 960-PL (JetSet software, HP branded) 5, 4gb hotswap scsi's After 'newfs', the installer attempts to mount its creations so the install may begin, however, without fail, this error appears (depending on partitions, the mount point/device sometimes is different) Error mounting /mnt/dev/mlxd0s1g on /mnt/home2 : invalid argument After a few hours of declaring war with the machine, I went back a few generations and tried a 4.2-RELEASE install. Flawless (as far as newfs/mount problems are concerned.) -- Lee Smallbone Kechara Internet lee@kechara.net www.kechara.net Tel: (01243) 869 969 Fax: (01243) 866 685 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
