I don't remember EXACTLY what it said, but it was something like: "Could not create slice. Partition too big?". But my partition is ony 5.5 gig (one of my friend installed it on a 15 gig partition!). So I'd like to know if any of you guys out there have known such a problem and if there's a way to fix it. Debian no longer fits my needs like I wish it would, and I have to see if FreeBSD is my alternative (plus Loki will support FreeBSD, so there's no reason NOT to use it :)) wmHardRock To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
