Sounds to me like sysinstall is trying to make the devices. This means they aren't there. You're using a RELEASE kernel, so the device numbers shouldn't be different, but you never know. You might want to try creating the nodes before hand, sothat sysinstall doesn't have to: cd /dev && sh MAKEDEV all Now try sysinstall again. You might also not have configured the appropriate devices in your kernel, I notice you have built a custom one. Try booting with /kernel.GENERIC and see if the problem persists. If that doesn't help, try using CVSup to upgrade to the latest 4-STABLE and compile a new kernel.
