>Description:
While trying to install 6.0 Beta 1 with the install CD's and assigning/creating the partition it is displayed as /dev/X where it should be /dev/ad1s* this causes the install too fail as it can not acctually create the partition at /dev/X when I try commit.

I have a western digital 250gb ATA100 hard drive as a master drive on the second IDE/ATA channel. My motherboard has the old VT233A chipset.
