Hi David, > Error mounting /dev/ad1s3 on /mnt: Operation not permitted > > Am I missing a step where the slices are set up?

The 'A' option in sysinstall doesn't work :( It creates a BSD partition (I think) inside the slice, but the loader doesn't understand BSD partitions. What you should do is just create a single '/' filesystem on your slice. > I must be doing something dumb. Nah, it's me, I forgot to disable that option when it was first reported to break things :( later, Peter.
