I cant remember if sysinstall gives you the option to decoide partition letters or not off the top of my head. I just assumed that the partition marked as UFS with mount point / would become 'a' and that the swap partition would become 'b'. Maybe thats what the problem is - in which case is this something that can be fixed in sysinstall ? I dont think its an uncommon idea for someone doing an install to think "oh, I'lll give it 256M of swap and use all the rest for the other bits" and thus put the 256M swap partition first. -pete.
