X-Priority: 3 (Normal) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Well, I have tried again. I attempted to install FreeBSD rel 2.2.2 on my brand new 4.3 gb hd. It still will not boot. None of the boot managers that I have tried see the partition as active even though I made sure that I set the slice as bootable. I have tried to change the HD between Normal and LBA and attempted installations with both settings. I have gone back in after the installation and set the slice as bootable. Nothing. I continue to receive messages like "/mnt: Write failed, file system is full." and "bad disklablecan't find /kernal." and also "error mounting /mnt/dev/wd1s1g on /mnt/usr: invalid argument." I am at my wits end. What am I missing?? What haven't I done?? If someone could please clue me in I would be deeply appreciative. Thanks in advance, Vince Rodriguez -- It is not whether or not you die, we all die eventually. It is, in fact, how you have lived, that will make the difference. No matter how small.
