I posted some days before I intend to install FreeBSD on the first partition of a master disk on the secondary channel. I was lucky nobody replied The installation fails just when the partitions are to be written.
I have noticed that the installer detects one disk as ad4 (master, primary channel), and the other as ad6. Now, counting my IDE drives, including HDs, I have only 5 of them. So, why the installer wants to create a root partition where there is nothing (ad6s1)? I suppose the floppy drive doesn't count as a IDE drive. The error I get is: "couldn't create a new root filesystem". Could you help?
