OK, it seems that I tracked down the source of the problem: Apparently,
the geometry values which the installer calculates aren't correct. If I
run newfs without parameters, it works fine. Unfortunately, there is no
way to bypass newfs in the installation routine. Does anyone have a
suggestion for the correct disk geometry data, or how to retrieve them?
