Hi, all.

Even though I am currently running FreeBSD-current of June 30,
I have following errors during the boot time (I made the FreeBSD
slice using the FreeBSD 2.0 installation process.):

  sd0: start 819200, end 2074623, size 1255424
  sd0d: start 0, end 2074879, size 2074880
  sd0: rejecting partition in BSD label: it isn't entirely within the slice
  sd0e: start 32, end 819199, size 819168

Also, I got the following weird information for 'disklabel sd0':

   # /dev/rsd0c:
   type: SCSI
   disk: 
   label: MBR based label
   flags:
   bytes/sector: 512

   8 partitions:

     a:    81920        0    4.2BSD     1024  8192    16   # (Cyl.    0 - 39)

   Warning, revolutions/minute 0

So, I decide to install from the scratch using 2.0.5 CD which I've just
received. But installation menu looks a bit different from that of 2.0 CD.

Would you tell me what is the starting point to remove my problems,
either from the "partition" or "disklabel" in the main menu?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
--Uh

ps. Also, I tried to install FreeBSD 2.0.5 from the CD in DOS, I got the
    fatal error, such as "EMM386......"   I am wondering why that
    happens...
