>Description:
I'm try to install FreeBSD 8.2 amd64 on a ESXi 4.1. I create a virtualdisk of 20Go and so I boot on the 8.2 iso
During install, in disklabel,the size af the disk before any action :
Disk: da0 Partion name: da0s1 Free: 41929587 blocks (20473MB)
I choose first "A auto defaults" and so disklabel create :
da0s1a / 1024MB UFS2 Y
da0s1b swap 4061MB swap
da0s1d /var 6126MB UFS2+S Y
da0s1e /tmp 1024MB UFS2+S Y
da0s1f /usr 8237MB UFS2+S Y
To be able to compile the world, I want change the size of / and /tmp.
So I delete /tmp / and /usr
Disklabel say :
Disk: da0 Partion name: da0s1 Free: 21065651 blocks (10285MB)
So I create manualy / with size = 2G and /tm with size = 2G
At this time I can read :
Disk: da0 Partion name: da0s1 Free: 12677043 blocks (6189MB)
da0s1b swap 4061MB swap
da0s1d /var 6126MB UFS2+S Y
da0s1a / 2048MB UFS2 Y
da0s1e /tmp 2048MB UFS2+S Y
I do "Create" and disklabel show in the box "value required" 12677043. I select OK, FS mount point /usr and the following error message appeared :
"Unable to create the partition. Too big ?"
To create the /usr partition, the bigger value I can use for /usr is 5100M and so I can see :
Disk: da0 Partion name: da0s1 Free: 2232243 blocks (1089MB)
da0s1b swap 4061MB swap
da0s1d /var 6126MB UFS2+S Y
da0s1a / 2048MB UFS2 Y
da0s1e /tmp 2048MB UFS2+S Y
da0s1f /usr 5100MB UFS2+S Y
