Description david 2002-08-21 18:10:02 UTC 
Creation of root filesystem on Mylex AcceleRAID 250 controller fails.
Installation is aborted with recommendation to check debug output.  It reads:
..
DEBUG: Scanning disk mlxd0 for root filesystem
DEBUG: Scanning disk mlxd0 for swap partitions
Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string

How-To-Repeat: Try to install 4.6.2.
Comment 1 david 2002-08-21 18:53:49 UTC 
This appears only to occur when installing No Boot Manager.
Specifying the FreeBSD Boot Manager works.

Is this still a problem with 8.x?

Randi Harper,

Sorry, I don't know. That server was retired years ago.

sysinstall has been replaced by bsdinstall in FreeBSD 9.x. Closing.
