Hi, I have a P166 with a 2Gb HD, partitioned as follows: DOS 400Mb FreeBSD 700Mb WinNT 900Mb I partitioned the BSD slice, and mounted the drives /, SWAP, /var, /usr, as recommended in the installation. However, after selecting the Boot Manager, and attempting to complete the installation, it complains that the partition has been declared read-only! I am installing from an MS-DOS partition (C:\FREEBSD), and have FREEBSD\BIN and FREEBSD\FLOPPIES in there. Does anyone have a possible solution? Thanks, Sanjeev Athalye.
