I have the following installation problem. First it's an absolutely empty CONNER HD (540MB). I boot up the system with the boot floppy. I 'Fdisk' my HD with 266MB with Slice 1. Up to now everything's okay. On the screen I see a bootable BSD partition. Then I choose 'Disklabel'. I see a table on my screen with partitions a-h. Partition c is the FreeBsd partition and d is the entire disk. Then I choose ASSIGN and I'm asked which partition. I really don't know what I have to enter at this point. If I enter the letter c or d then it says INVALID PARTITION. If I enter a number it says INVALID PARTITION. If I enter the letter a,b or e-h it says INVALID PARTITION TYPE. At the moment I really don't know how to get BSD on my HD. Can Someone help me,please. Best regards, Guenter
