Having problem with installing 5.2.1 on a computer with 2 SATA 80G disk in RAID 0 (Striping) There is a WinXP installed already which has 4 primary partitions of 5, 10, 25 and 60G. My BSD installation went like usuall. I chose to create a Slice on ar0 in the unpartitioned 50G space. Then I chose to install Boot Manager. When commitin the changes a got error like "node for 'X' slices failed" ,"mount /dev unavailable". I will give you the exact error messages if you need them! Then I had to reboot my machine and I got very suprised that the boot manager was installed showing: F1 ??? F2 ??? F3 ??? F4 ??? Which probaly means my 4 NTFS partitions. XP boots if I choose F1. So my questions are: 1. How do I install BSD on my current RAID 0 system 2. How can I remove Bootmanager if I dont succeed with my BSD installation? Sincerely yours, Henrik
