Thanx. I got all of that working now.

The problem is now that it worked the first 3 times when I tried the
installation. I got the configuration wrong all of them so I thought I'd
better start over from scratch.

However, the fourth time (I transfered the miniroot.fs every time just
to be on the safe side) it stopped with a "no init" error and it stops
there every time now no matter what I do. It finds the root and swap
partitoins by itself, the error comes directly after that. I tried to
reconfigure the partitions a bit but no change.

----------------
root on wd0a dumps on wd0b
root file system type: ffs
warning: no /dev/console
exec /sbin/init: error 2
init: trying /sbin/oinit
exec /sbin/oinit: error 2
init: trying /sbin/init.bak
exec /sbin/init.bak error 2
init: not found
panic: no init
----------------

I never get to choose root and dump as it states in the installation
doc. Is that the reason?
