sysinstall Unable to find device node...
Hello: I am sorry to bother you. But I was wondering if you found a solution to your problem at the following site: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2004-March/ 042082.html Unable to find device node for /dev/ad0s1b in /dev! I am having the same problem with FreeBSD 5.4 and 5.3. PIII 800 Mhz 40Gb HD 256Ram . cant seem to solve. However 5.4 loads fine under Virtual PC on my Mac. when I set the geometry to the BIOS specs Install tells me Geometry not correct and doesnt accept. Sysinstall also states do not use physical geometry, but when physical geometry is used it is accepted. If you have any info it would be greatly appreciated.

sysinstall Unable to find device node...
Using an install.cfg with sysinstall off the boot floppies I am getting the following error: Unable to find device node for /dev/ad0s1b in /dev! The creation of filesystems will be aborted This only happens if I specify the file systems and sizes I want in install.cfg and tell it to do an installCommit or a diskLabelCommit. If I go into the disklabel editor after the install fails, I see the root partition and the swap partition but not my /usr or /var partitions. The debug screen says: Scanning disk ad0 for swap partitions Found swapdev at ad0s1b! It would appear that the swap device is there, and being found, but for some reason sysinstall is erroring out and I do not know why. This is only a problem when running it from install.cfg -Don ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
