I had this problem myself and a co-worker figured it out. FreeBSD won't see a FAT32 partion unless it is a primary partition. Use Partition Magic or similar software to change the FAT32 partition to be a primary partion and you should be set. I consider this to be a bug in FreeBSD. --tal uwi mAn wrote: > > # mount -t msdos /dev/ad0s2 /xp > fixlabel: raw partition size > slice size > msdos: /dev/ad0s2: Invalid argument > # dmesg |grep ad0s2 > ad0s2: raw partition size != slice size > ad0s2: start 2104515, end 19615364, size 17510850 > ad0s2c: start 2104515, end 40082174, size 37977660 > ad0s2: truncating raw partition > > XP on it works very peachy. > > Whats that?
