How to create NanoBSD iso image to install NanoBSD on vmware machine?
Dear Friends, I am new to Nanobsd and trying to create an iso image which can be installed on vmware machine. I created an iso image using the disk image (/usr/obj/nanobsd.full/_.disk.image) generated according to steps given in NanoBSD How To http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/articles/nanobsd/howto.html . VM could boot up with this ISO image, but I got an error as below before I could get OS installation prompt: mount: /dev/ad0s3: No such file or directory mount -o ro /dev/ad0s3 /conf/default/etc failed: droppnig into /bin/sh Cannot read termcap database; using dumb terminal settings. # do I need to use different commands or options to create iso image while using nanobsd.sh script? Please help. Many thanks in advance for your help and time.

The default is SCSI, which corresponds to /dev/da, not ad.

Hi Olivier, Hard Disk is configured as IDE (IDE 1:1), vm settings. When freebsd image is booting in this VM, before getting the above error, following logs are displayed on boost console: ada0: VMWare Virtual IDE Hard Driver 0001 ATA-4 device ... ... ada0: Previously was known as ad3 .. Trying to mount root from cd9660:/dev/iso9660/nanoISO [ro]...
