I don't recall reading about any /dev/rad0s2a .... or is that just a typo & you really meant
/dev/ad0s2a ??
As far as I know IDE drives have "ad0sxx" type names & SCSI ones have "sd0sxx" type ones ..
maybe you problem is as simple as a typo ??

Subject: Partition FreeBSD
Dear All,
I'm still cannot create partition at OS freeBSD with error message:
" Warning ! unable to swap to /dev/ad0s2b : invalid argument this may couse the installation
to fail at some point
if you dont't have a lot of memory. "
"Unable to make new root file system on /dev/rad0s2a
command returnet status 1 "
I have OS windows 2000, with partition ntfs, and I want splitte with OS freeBSD with one hardisk
please bear with me
thank you and regards,
donny
