In fact, trying to set the geometry can mung up the installation. Someone should make some explicit changes - at least in messages and documentation in this regard. It has been a decade since this geometry thing has been obsolete. I don't know enough to make a completely accurate statement or I would submit something. jerry Steve ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Installation error. Command returned status 36
Hello. I'm trying to install FreeBSD 7.0, but I have next problem. When installation program write new partitions structure to disc it exits with next error: Unable to make new root file system on /dev/ad1s1a! Command returned status 36. And at the start of installation process I have warning about wrong disk geometry. My HDD is Segate ST340810A 40Gb, and I was trying write geometry (which I found on its case and in BIOS), but without success. The same problem with FreeBSD 6.2 and another my HDD. But hardware looks good, because Linux and OpenBSD was installed without any problems.

In my experience it is best to let the install program figure it out. I have always ignored the warning at the beginning of the installation process without problems.

Hey Viacheslav, I always ignore that message every time I will install fresh FreeBSD It doesn't not create error or anything during the installation. Cheers... Hello.
