I am trying to install FreeBSD in slice 2 (WinXP already installed
in slice 1), both by 'install.cfg' and manually. All works fine when I
use the entire disk, using partitions 'da0s1X'.
I can create slice 2, with type 165, but when I try to lay out the
filesystems and do the 'commit', I get the following errors:
'Copying return error status of 1!'
'/: write failed, filesystem is full'
'installInitial: Couldn't clone the bootfloppy onto the root file system.
Aborting!'
An emergency shell shows that the device files 'da0s2a' through
'da0s2f' exist in '/dev'.
What am I missing?
Thanks,
Mike.
