Took me ages to find a breaking point. Still: Create da0s1a /dummy, da0s1b / Delete da0s1a Install -> OK Reboot into installer Edit da0s1b mount point to / Install -> OK Reboot into installer Edit da0s1b mount point to / Install -> OK Reboot into installer Edit da0s1b mount point to / Install -> "mount da0s1b: Operation not permitted" It doesn't always take 3 runs for the error to occur, though. On two occasions I managed to provoke "da0s1a: Input/Output error", the partiton editor afterwards showing the partition, but an empty field for its size. I'll try to figure out a reliable way to reproduce these tonight. Michael
