), 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
FBSD sees each partition on each hard drive as an separate hard
drive, just like windows does.
I see. Thanks for the info. I now have to find out why the installer cannot

You should be installing 4.9, all the 5.x series is from the
development branch of the code tree, it's where all the new and
