After making newfs on ad2s1a,b,c,d,e, the install program starts = extracting bin into the / directory. Almost immediately, I get a write = error window followed by a "/: filesystem full" on the console. Swithing = over to a console, df shows md0 mounted on /, and my newly created = partitions mounted on /mnt, /mnt/usr, /mnt/var, ect. After install = failing 3 times, I then made seperate partitions for each filesystem, = ad2s1a, ad2s2a, ad2s3a, ect and install completed without a problem. = Any ideas to why the different partitioning would make a difference? Hardware is a HP "Pavillion" with Intel 82801AB ULTRA ATA IDE = controller, onto a samsung "Trigen" HDD. -Eric ------=_NextPart_000_0044_01C24E34.856463D0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2716.2200" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>This is about the 6th computer i've = installed 4.x=20 on and have never come across this error.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>After making newfs on ad2s1a,b,c,d,e, = the=20 install program starts extracting bin into the / directory. = Almost=20 immediately, I get a write error window followed by a "/: filesystem = full" on=20 the console.
