 Hi,
 
 A firend of mine was hit by the same problem, as he tried to install on
 a partition
 of FreeBSD type, created with Linux, on his primay IDE HD.
 
 The sollution was to delete and recreate the partition with the FreeBSD
 partition
 table editor, while installing.
 
 I am not sure if this has anything to do with hardware settings, but
 with the fact that
 the partition *was already there*.
