I have been trying to install Walnut Creek's FreeBSD v2.0.5 without 
success.  Hardware identified and changed in the config at boot.  Trying 
to install from a MAT-CD 562.  The hard disk is partition into 3 slices 
and each is labeled wd01a, wd01b (swap) and wd01e.  When commit is 
executed, the following error occurs:  DEBUG> Starting Emergency 
holographic shell over the 4th screen.  And then it traps FATAL 12 
supervisor write to page, page does not exist.  Machine subsequently 
boots.  
Can you please suggest a partitioning and labeling scheme for a 200 M IDE 
drive.  I wold like to use X-Windows as one of hte options.  I am 
devoting this machine entirely to u**x with no partitions for DOS.

Thank-you in advance.  Please reply to both myself and Bob as we are both 
working on this project.
