I'v got some problems while installing 1.0 distribution on my A3000.
Here is the trouble:

>-----
choices: sd0
which drive do you want /usr on?
sd0
You have selected sd0
here is a list of partitions on sd0
#        size    offset   fstype   [fsize bsize    cpg]

which partition would you like to format and have
mounted as /usr? (supply the letter): j

Initializing /usr filesystem, and mounting...
newfs: /dev/rsd0j: can't figure out file system partition
/dev/sd0j on /mnt/usr: Incorrect super block.

Adding to sftab... done.
>-----

after that he goes on as everithings where ok.


My configuration:
Amiga 3000, 4MB Zip on board, 4MB SIMM on DKB3128 (zthree...),
HD Conner 545MB SCSI-II, Picasso II

As you can see from my report my HD has 6 ADOS partition (3.1, 3.0, 2.1, 2.0,
[...yes, I was an ex-amiga developer sigh :( ], Tools, Data), 4 BSD
partitions (root [16 mb], swap [16 mb ...does not apper in the list], user
[100 mb], local [116 mb] ).

I build the partitions folowing the docs. I don't think to have made a
mistake here, as you can see NetBSD recognize them as 4.2BSD.

What do you think about it?
