>Release:        FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE i386
>Environment:

	FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE, pentium 133, multiple hard drives (4)

>Description:

	During the installation process, one is asked to decide what should
	be mounted where (and wether that partition should be newfs'ed, etc).
	The menu has room on the screen to show 6 slices.
	If there are more than 6 slices on the system (e.g, a boot disk that
	has /, /usr, and /var and then 3 external drives) the menu gets
	confused--the 7th and following slices get wrapped around the right-
	hand menu, and it's very hard to deal with.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Install FreeBSD 2.1.5 on a machine with a bunch of slices

>Fix:
