Greetings
I have a problem installing Unix FreeBSD 4.2 from CD
After i make made all the "arrangements" with partitions and FS and I =
was asked if I'm sure in all the things I've made the setup sometimes =
says "Unable to crete root on slice Code 36" or sometimes says "Making =
newfs -b 8192 -f 1024" the PC seems to be working but for hours nothing =
happens"

I have Fujitsu 17gb ide HDD which has 3 partitions 1)5gb fat32 (win98)
                                                                         =
  2)5gb fat32 extended
                                                                         =
  3)the rest is freebsd
My BIOS sees the whole HDD
That's it=20
In other words I can't make new newfs
Thank you for help
SY Hedin

PS In addition to the answer can you send me the meanings of the =
arguments of the newfs program
