But I have to click S to define this slice as ACTIVE partition and that's it. Click Q. 4- I use "Fdisk Partition Using Entire Disk" I click "A" as default partition. Click Q. 5- I select Standar like Boot Manager for drive ad0. 6- For Choose Distribution, I choose ALL. 7- For Choose Media, I choose CD/DVD. 8- And after I got the following warning: User Confirmation Requested Last Chance! Are you SURE you want to continue the installation?=20 If you're running this on a disk with data you wish to save then WE STRONGLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO MAKE PROPER BACKUPS before proceeding!=20 We can take no responsibility for lost disk contents! =20 [ Yes ] No 9- I chose, YES, and I've always gotten the following message.
