Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org hi folks, i created two FreeBSD slices (type fbsd) on my Seagate Barracuda 4LP (da0s1, da0s2) and made s1 active. everything went fine with the installation but when i rebooted the system, i get an "Invalid partition table" message. i tried a different approach: did the same (created two slices) and installed the FreeBSD boot manager -- still couldn't boot. i also created one slice then it booted but when i created s2, the problem went back again. what is wrong here? the reason why i want to create two fbsd slices on one hard drive is that i want to make use of the excess space on da0 for the vinum volume. NOTE: i'm installing FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE -- francis vidal university of st. la salle, bacolod city, philippines . . . . . . .
