I think you should remove the functions "diskPartitionWrite" and 
"diskLabelCommit", try this instead:

 debug=yes

 # Networking Options
 hostname=geo
 domainname=domain.com
 nameserver=192.168.0.254
 defaultrouter=192.168.0.254
 ipaddr=192.168.0.201
 netmask=255.255.255.0
 netDev=fxp0

 # Partitioning
 disk=ad0
 partition=all
 bootManager=boot
 diskPartitionEditor

 # disklabel
 ad0s1-1=ufs 524288 /
 ad0s1-2=swap 131072 none
 ad0s1-3=ufs 524288 /var
 ad0s1-4=ufs 0 /usr
 diskLabelEditor

 # install sys
 mediaSetCDROM
 distSetKernDeveloper
 installCommit


Cheers,
ch

5.2.1-RELEASE and install.cfg unable to find ad0s1b dev node

2004-09-13 Thread Ivan Fetch
Hello,
   I've searched the mailing lists and found others with this issue, but 
haven't found a solution yet - can someone point me in the right direction 
please?

   When using an install.cfg file with 5.2.1-RELEASE, I get:
Unable to find device node for /dev/ad0s1b in /dev!
The creation of filesystems will be aborted.
   Even if I set the DiskInteractive variable before running the DiskLabel 
editor, the above error still appears.

   Here is my install.cfg file:
installVarDefaults
debug=yes
# Networking Options
hostname=geo
domainname=domain.com
nameserver=192.168.0.254
defaultrouter=192.168.0.254
ipaddr=192.168.0.201
netmask=255.255.255.0
netDev=fxp0
# Install Media Options
mediaSetCDROM
# Distribution Selection
distSetKernDeveloper
# Partitioning
disk=ad0
partition=all
bootManager=boot
diskPartitionEditor
diskPartitionWrite
ad0s1-1=ufs 524288 /
ad0s1-2=swap 131072 none
ad0s1-3=ufs 524288 /var
ad0s1-4=ufs 0 /usr
# Even commenting out the above and uncomminting the below, install still 
fails.
#diskInteractive=yes
diskLabelEditor
diskLabelCommit
installCommit

   Thanks in advance for your help,
Ivan Fetch.
