The firsr error message is "Operation not permitted", conequetive attempts fails with "/dist allready exists" or similar. Unable to delete non-freebsd partitions from Fdisk. Setting them to type 165 and then deleting works. Since installation from DOS is my only option right now, i went ahead using installer from a june -CURRENT. This almost worked, but the boot code was not properly written. The BootMgr comes up, but I get no further. Trying Fixit from the 5.0-DP2 boot disks fails! Similar error as when trying install from DOS fs. Fixing this after boot does not work because of GEOM :( Mvh, Frode Nordahl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
