Hello Doug, Yes, using the whole disk w/o making it dedicated is what I tried after I sent out this eMail and it worked. I get this F1 . . . BSD Default F1 prompt however every time I reboot now. Not that I can't live with it.. Wonder if I can use nextboot, disklabel or fdisk to fix it now.. -- Yan Jan Koum jkb@best.com | "Turn up the lights; I don't want www.FreeBSD.org -- The Power to Serve | to go home in the dark."
