I had the same problem. Today, I tried using the PCBSD dvd to install
FreeBSD on ZFS (with /boot on UFS). It kept giving errors just before
completion. However, some comments I found while googling about that
problem mentioned that the installation seemed to have completed,
which seems to be the case. Both FreeBSD and FreeDOS are now installed
on the same drive (in a VM, I'll try this on real h/w next). Still not
sure what caused the error during installation though.
