Description Oliver Nissen 1998-08-18 20:20:01 UTC 
	Invoking /stand/sysinstall with having inserted a 640MB MOD (2048 bytes per sector) for od0 causes sysinstall to quit after ca. 20 seconds without printing any messages. If you invoke sysinstall without a disk in the drive, it works fine. Unfortunately, selecting the disk label editor, it won't let you to choose the device to label then.

Fix: 

use disklabel and newfs
How-To-Repeat:
