Thanks for the warning. I never manually delete the ad0s1c partition, but I'm using Qemu so I do usually rebuild the underlying image to clear previous state. That doesn't make things work. (I also tried *not* doing so, but the results aren't any different.) How would I check what the fstype of a bsdlabel partition is? Something I've just noticed is that even invoking sysinstall interactively doesn't change the outcome. I believe this means the FreeSBIE environment I've got set up is bad in some way. I don't understand why sysinstall would care but apparently it does. Does anyone else use mediaSetUFS or equivalent for installation? Jeff
