I am trying for the first time to set up FreeBSD (it's also my first UNIX
installation). I am trying a small (USER) install on a second IDE
harddrive on my system. I have created a small DOS partition (80Mb),
created a DOS directory called FreeBSD, and filled it with /bin /docs /dict
/manpages files and directories from the FTP server (Micro Center was out
of the CD and I'm in a hurry).
I booted off the floppy and ran the novice install - after a few dry runs
(mostly because I wasn't paying attention), I got it to run all the way up
to COMMIT. During the process of trying to create the file system, it
bombs out and gives an error that says:
error mounting /dev/wd2s2 on /dos: invalid argument (22)
wd2s2 is the name of the DOS partition
What do I need to do?
I'm loading 2.1.5-Release
If God's your co-pilot, switch seats!
