It is the secondary slave. I partioned it with the fdisk in the freebsad install with a 80 Meg partition at the end for my swap and the rest of the 1.6 gig hard drive as root at the beginning of the disk. I get through the install but when I try to boot the system it eventually hangs and says cannot mount root. It says changing root device to wd2a cannot mount root. On fdisk my root partition is wd3s1a. Can anyone help me out?
