I have 4 NetBSD partitions (root,swap,usr,var) and 7 total partitions on =
a 1.25GB disk. It seems that I can make partitions correctly using FWB =
Hard Disk Toolkit and Apple HD SC Setup, I can run Mkfs, change and =
format these partitions, run install and build devices into /dev on =
root, and the rest of the stuff (in short the apps definitely read and =
can write to these partitions). I can install the base.tgz files, but =
when it gets to the tarball with the /var files, I get an error saying:
Error on SCSIRead(), # 5 -- this happens 6 times
pos =3D 0, i =3D 27, fs =3D /var
alloccgblk: can't find blk in cyl
I look at the various log files from Mkfs and Installer and they both =
say that there is a certain number of sectors unallocated. How do I =
rectify this?
thanks in advance,
km
