Hi dear list, I have a small pc and I want to setup freebsd 5.2 on it, but I couldnt get successful until now...Tried many many times but no succes. My pc's properties Mainbord ASUS A7V133 Cpu: AMD Athon 1200 Secordary Master Seagate 80GB Barracuda.
When setup tries to make partitions, it alerts me, there is a disk geometry error. 155061/16/63 is incorrect. It should has been 9729/255/63. First, I didnt change and tried to setup. I failed. Afterwards, I changed disk geometry what setup said, but nevertheless I failed. bios update is 06.04.03 and hdd's auto options is selected. I guess PIO is 4, UDMA is 2 cause auto-selected. Where am I wrong with setup? regards, sinan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Aaron Walker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, February 29, 2004 9:54 PM Subject: Re: slice X? > On Sun, 2004-02-29 at 02:56, Cordula's Web wrote: > > > When I try to create a new slice, it gives it the name 'X' which causes > > > a problem when I try to create new partitions on that slice: > > > > > > Unable to create partitons on device: /dev/X > > > > This happens when sysinstall runs out of valid slice names. > > Try using less file systems per partition... > > > I figured it was because there were no free primary partitions (all free > space was in linux extended partition). > > This was solved simply by deleting ALL linux partitions ;) > > Thanks, > Aaron > > _______________________________________________ > [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > > _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
