Hello.

I dunno if i write this to the right mailinglist, if i dont please excuse me
and please help me.
Anyway, to the problem.
I have a machine an Toshiba Tecra 780DVD (laptop) with 7.8 gb hd, 128 mb
ram, pentium II 266 and other misc things.
When i try to install NetBSD 1.3.3 strange things happens.
The sysinst is creating sucessfully the partitions but it refuses to create
an disklabel.
Ive tried to make the disklabel manually and it refuses, the error message
that i get through sysinst is something with number 256.
Ive even tried to make the disklabel through linux fdisk, the same thing,
not working. I get another error there, "Cannot seek on /dev/hda".
Ive 4 partitions, 1 windows 98 fat32 partition (partition 1), 2 linux
partitions (2&3) and the netbsd partition (4).
Someone please help me ? at least try to. :P
And please cc me a copy of the answer, because iam not an subscriber of the
list.
Sorry for my bad english
