According to doc, "Esc" should spawn a shell, but it dosen't. After some tries with the new install-floppies (including the Jun 04. - floppies) I installed 2.0.5 over an 2.0 system with 2 slices: first DOS, secound FreeBSD. If it is booted with an 2.0-kernel, anything looks ok, but booting with an 2.0.5-kernel, I got (from dmesg) sd0: rejecting partition in BSD label: it isn't entirely within the slice sd0: start 204800, end 4108287, size 3903488 sd0d: start 0, end 4108599, size 4108600 sd0: rejecting partition in BSD label: it isn't entirely within the slice sd0g: start 32, end 204799, size 204768 "disklabel sd0" reports only my bsd-partitions, moved to the begin of the drive where DOS should be. Was format of disklabel changed? Hinrich
