[-- Attachment #1 --] Hello, with BETA7 it's not possible to create two slices because sysinstall then marks these two slices active! Another question: Why is sysinstall (and fdisk) reading CHS values to complain about them? I have a NULLed disk (lowlevel formated) and sysinstall complains about wrong geometry, regardless of the BIOS setting. Another problem (which I originaly started in questions@ [MBR not overwritable with dd?]) with fdisk is that it shows a certain partition in the table with a start sector 63 and id 165 on a completely NULLed disk, so there's no partition table and MBR at all. That's not the way it should work is it? -Harry [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBBajwOBylq0S4AzzwRAsX2AJ0bLfovQ3a+zEiYbDwtZgTrgzzaZACfRZ2K LK7b8QIkH0YOHkk3QB7+IAI= =0sLo -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----help
