Installation of OpenBSD 6.2 fails on a Soekris net5501. (I've used OpenBSD on
these boxes with similar disklabels since 3.x or 4.x)
Specifically, the Installation of base62.tgz failed. Do I have any slices
which are too small for 6.2? Or is there some other problem? Any advice?
What script is giving the error message "tar: Unable to remove directory
./var/tmp: Device busy" ??
Here is my disklabel:
