Have tried to install FreeBSD about 5 times with the same error and no, I don't get any other error before this one. What is weird to me is that whenever I get the error and try to reinstall and label/partition the hard drive, all my previous labels/partitions from the previous installation disappear and am working with a unpartitioned drive.
