Hello,
(I was trying to install 3.4-Stable as a second version of FreeBSD on a small disk)
I have installed "by hand" the bin distribution on these partitions :
root : ad0s2a :
The data for partition 2 is:
sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
start 100800, size 100800 (49 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 50/ sector 1/ head 0;
end: cyl 99/ sector 63/ head 31
/var ad0s3f and /usr ad0s3h, which are in :
The data for partition 3 is:
sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
start 201600, size 1465632 (715 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 100/ sector 1/ head 0;
end: cyl 826/ sector 63/ head 31
This installation boots quite fine (as this was a "bare-bones" hand install, things
are missing : in particular /stand)
So, the error message that I saw in the installation program "this region cannot be
used for your root partition...please choose another location" is plain wrong. As this
is a small machine, I have not installed the full sources - I don't konw where to
look for a bug in /stand/sysinstall
