I have written both boot disks (kernel.flp and = mfsroot.flp) and everything seems to go fine until a point at which the = computer stops and shows me this: =20 md0: raw partition size !=3Dslice size md0: start0, end 8638, size 8639 md0c: start0, end 8639, size 8640 md0: truncating raw partition md0: rejecting partition in BSD label: it isn't entirely within the = slice md0: start0, end 8638, size 8639 md0c: start0, end 8639, size 8640 ... ...
