What do you mean by "doesn't respond"? You have an empty hard-disk, right? And you see a screen with 'FDISK Partition Editor' to the top and right, as described in the handbook? You should see your hd marked 'unused'. Press C (for create slice). You want a bsd-slice (165 I think). Select it's size (in MB, i.e=20 type in '20000MB'). Is this roughly what's not working for you? You've got to provide some info about the errors you're getting, or you'll receive messages saying "read the handbook!"
