Hi all, I'm using a single AHDI configured SCSI disk and a single NetBSD (NBD) partition on that disk, which as far as HDDRIVER is concerned it's partition I: Now, using disklabel I've configued sd0a to be the location of partition I: start/end cylinders and disklabel and newfs complete successfully, but then comes "installboot". I'm not sure why this is trying to install any boot blocks as I didn't configure that I wanted a kernel installing. What happens is.... Status: Running Command: /usr/mdec/installboot -v /dev/rsd0c ----------------------------------------------------- installboot: Cannot stat /netbsd, no bootversion check done installboot: /dev/rsd0c: NetBSD boot block not on primary AHDI partition. And the installation re-starts. So, I moved /usr/mdec/installboot out of the way and created a new one which just had "#!/bin/sh" inside it so it becomes a no-op command. This works, and I'm allowed to continue the installation. Alan.
