Hello, I am trying to install FreeBSD-4.0 on a new machine. The file system cannot be created : Fixit# newfs -b 8192 -f 1024 /dev/ad0s2a superblock backup (for fsck -b #) : ... ... cg 0: bad magic number newfs: wtfs: Read-only file system This problem has been posted several times (about various versions of FreeBSD) but never been answered with a solution. Does anyone know a solution or has details about the cause of the problem ? Thanks. PS : MSDOS 6.22 can format and be installed correctly on the disk, which tend to prove that the hardware is ok.
