Attempting to install via the latest 5-current (May 1 I think) errors out at 43% for me every time with the same "Fatal Error: Invalid realloc size of 0!". I spent some time with the mailing list archives and Google, but although lots of people are having the problem, nobody has said anything about a solution. Are there any UFS2 enabled snapshots that have solved people's problem with this? Running on an 800mhz Duron on an Abit KT7-A motherboard, 80GB Maxtor HD plugged into the raid port on the motherboard, if it matters. ----- I don't know if this is significant, given that the install process halts when it's barely into it, but when I boot into Windows and hit a partition program (PM8) it gives me the following two error messages every time: PM has detected an error 116 on the partition starting at sector 41062140 on disk 1. The starting LBA value is 41062140 and the CHS value is 16450622. The LBA and CHS values must be equal. PM has verified the LBA value is correct and can fix the CHS value. PM has detected an error 116 on the partition starting at sector 133098525 on disk 1. The starting LBA value is 133098525 and the CHS value is 16450622. The LBA and CHS values must be equal. PM has verified the LBA value is correct and can fix the CHS value. Note, if I delete the FreeBSD partition that was created, fix those problems, and reboot, the error stays gone, but as soon as I try and install again and it stops the error is back again =0 On Friday 02 May 2003 12:56 pm, Jeffrey Racine wrote: > Hi. > > This occurs on my box as well... tried 4/21/03, 4/20/03, > current.freebsd.org, the .jp. equiv, all get around 41-43% through the > base install then > > Fatal Error: Invalid realloc size of 0!
