State Changed From-To: open->feedback Is this still a problem? It looks like a BSD disklabel ended up on the second slice, maybe from a previous installation or something. If so, you could probably clear it by zeroing the second sector of the second slice, though you'd want to be sure that doing so doesn't clobber anything important. State Changed From-To: feedback->closed Submitter says this can be closed; the problem went away after a reformat, so it was probably a left-over disklabel. A second problem mentioned in the PR was not reproducable on other hardware, and the submitter is unable to verify if it has been resolved. Thanks for the quick response! |
When installation program attempts to test disks on the start or any partition on the 1st drive is mounted, the kernel reports: wd0s2: raw partition size != slice size wd0s2: start 927360, end 7047935, size 6120576 wd0s2c: start 927360, end 1991807, size 1064448 ^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^ 500MB ? There is no 500MB partition Also the installation program hang right after "Starting emergency holographic shell...", but it could be easily resolved pressing CTRL-ALT-DEL and answering "No" to question about abort of installation. These problems were seen from 3.0 release. 2.2.x seems to be ok. Same installation CD works without problem on another computers. Fix: I don't know any workaround for that message. It seems to be harmless, except that hang on install (I'm unsure, whether it is caused by that problem). How-To-Repeat: Running /stand/sysinstall. Either from Installation disk or after install from shell. Also mounting any partition causes that message.
