trying to install 6.1 on my secondary master partition or slice 2. I come from linux so please be forgiving with the naming or slices and partitions. i created a 40G slice on ad3 with fdisk, then with disklabel i created a 4g / a 512M swap and the rest for /home i used the "S" option on the "/" partition. the installer gives me and error saying that it wasn't able to create the partions on the slice and the install aborts. what can i do? i don't wanna give up that ext3 part on this drive. thanks -- Eric Dan ericdan@ucla.edu UCLA ID#103297286 http://www.vladuz976.com/ GPG key: FD13E94D ( B9D1 7D8D 34E0 D0B7 D3C9 4571 0BAC 1DC7 FD13 E94D)
