That might be. I have tried this with: 1) amd64 beta3 and beta4 using the downloaded DVD images 2) 7.1/7.2 using the installation CD from the set sold by FreeBSD Mall. I also tried on several sets of hardware: SCSI, IDE, SATA. The number of disks and number of slices and partitions per disk had no effect. (1) always failed; (2) succeeded. (Fruitlessly, since the specification was for a clean install of 8.0 code and I had to wipe and try (1) again.) Robert Huff
