Hi Jonathan, > What FreeBSD version are you using? Iīm tried this with the versions 3.4-RELEASE and 4.1-RELEASE > What type of hard drive are you trying to format? Iīm have FreeBSD intalled in a IDE HD and trying to format another IDE HD > Has FreeBSD/Linux ever been installed on that hard drive before? Yes, the first time had a FreeBSD 3.4 formatation, after the problem I formated with MS-DOS FAT32 and trying to format with FreeBSD 4.1 again > What is the exact error message? Error mounting /dev/wd2s1e on /hd2 : Invalid argument I got to format that HD creating a swap partition first, but I think it isnīt necessary, but, if I donīt creating a swap partition, the formatation donīt work.
