Subject:   install fails on 10.2 GB drive using 4.0

after selecting every default choice in the partitioning and slicing of a
new 10.2 GB WD HD, the install failes with an error message saying it
couldn't swap to /dev/ad0s1...

i changed the hard drive to a smaller 6.4 GB drive and it works.

i searched the archives and found some references to large hard drives in
LBA mode.  i didn't notice a selection for that in the setup.  but what i
found allowed me to believe it should work.

is there an option i'm missing?

thanks,

kim
