Are you doing a Novice or Custom installation? Are there any other operating systems on your machine? (If so I haven't tried that yet so someone else will have to answer your question!) If this machine is for FreeBSD only, when you get to the fdisk part, delete all the information and tell it to use all the hard disk drive (for both disks?), and when you get to the Label part where you use the disk label editor I did A for use entire disk or all the disk or whatever it was. I had a similar problem when i mucked up an installation and tried to reinstall without deleting and re-creating the partitions and labels. Hope this helps (cc: to list so someone can correct me if i'm on the wrong track or incorrect) Andrew Perry andrew@shoal.net.au Jack Strap wrote: > > Andrew Perry wrote: > > > > is this an ide or scsi drive, if scsi what type of controller do you > >>>>>>IDE controler PCI > > have? > > is your hard drive detected in the probing? > >>>>>yes no problemo!! is detected all my device > > > > andrew perry > > andrew@shoal.net.au > > > > phatom wrote: > > > > > > hi! > > > > > > i'am new user for FreeBSD > > > i have serious problem to install FreeBSD > > > > > > at the installation after fdisk etc... > > > > > > He write message below (Write Failure on transfert!(WROTE -1BYTES OF 1024 > > > BYTES)) > > > > > > What the probleme on my computer?????????????? > > > > > > this my hard drive incompatibility quantum sirrocco 1.7 gig > > > and the second hard drive samsumg 1.2 gig. > > > > > > Please Help me!! > > > > > > Thanks a lot!
