Hi David, > I went back and tried this. Problem now is that the DiskLabel Editor is > not letting me specify the size of the filesystem. I select my slice, > type "C" to create.

Yep, that's the downside for having to do this. > I went ahead and created a "/" filesystem (without any swap). "/" was > initialized and files were copied from the CD.

There also aren't any pre-built packages, so you'll have to grab the ports tree from freebsd.org and built ports manually. > In any case, it appears that the DiskLabel Editor is misbehaving in > several ways. Yeh, it needs some work :( later, Peter.home | help
