Can you show us details?
Something that would help is (with the root disk unchanged after a failed
install attempt): boot into the installer, exit sysinst (e.g. use Utilities/
Run /bin/sh, or just ^Z out of it). Then show aus the partition details,
like: disklabel sd0
and try to run newfs manually.

Or maybe even better: from the ZuluSCSI, make an image of the root disk
available somewhere for download, so I can try to reproduce the issue
locally in a debugabble environment.

Thanks!
