Does the installer look for the fstab inside the created wd0a partition? or does it look for a specific parition, e.g. wd0b? Not related with this issue, but to the bootloader in general: do I need to have a small HFS or FAT partition to hold ofwboot.xcf in the final setup? Rethinking, I probably do. It is not that well explained in the documentation, but can be inferred. I have currently wd0a root and wd0b swap - nothing else. Apple partition map left intact using pdisk. Riccardo
