I'm installing FreeBSD 4.0 on a 200 mhz Pentium motherboard, with a
single 4.3 GB drive and a an ATAPI CDROM on IDE buss #0.

Every time I try to install, I see errors along the lines of

    panic: ffs_alloccg: map corrupted

Does this mean I need to low-level my hard drive? Or is there another
interpretation? Is there a problem with drives over N GB, such that they
need to be partitioned? This seems to occur when I try to [re]install
FreeBSD 3.1 on this platform, also.

Pointers to freebsd.org URLs are always welcome.

Thanks,
