Yes, you need to do it outside of sysinstall. There are two ways: 1. don't use partitions/slices at all and create the file system on the raw device (i.e. newfs /dev/da0) 2. use GPT partitions. The first one is recommended in 6.x. --------------enigD7208B62C65236E4F7D89822 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.4 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGa/r1ldnAQVacBcgRAg7FAKDs4SPrG7lKY2g+hZfTlxLFtZUaTACeOCtf 3NFdInzxepla1ifAB2Npovc= =5KtC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigD7208B62C65236E4F7D89822--
