I've seen linux partitions placed well above the 1024 cylinder with SysCom. While trying a 3.1-Release install off the CD, i get as far as the disk labeler, where it complains that the partition is above 1024 and so it can't create the partition, or if I try to make swap partition it says could not create, Too big? What do I do? Is there a way to force it to label anyway? If not I'm worried this person won't use FreeBSD, but will turn to Linux instead, and I don't want that to happen. -- Laurence Berland, Stuyvesant HS Debate <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Windows 98: n. useless extension to a minor patch release for 32-bit extensions and a graphical shell for a 16-bit patch to an 8-bit operating system originally coded for a 4-bit microprocessor, written by a 2-bit company that can't stand for 1 bit of competition. http://stuy.debate.net icq #7434346 aol imer E1101 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
