Installer - Could not flush cache of device /dev/ad0 - No such device
Hello,
I'm having some troubles installing debian/kfreebsd. During
partitioning installer warns me many times that 'Could not flush cache
of device /dev/ad0 - No such device' but let me continue to choose the
size and numbers of partitions until it finally fails trying to mount
them. I tried with no luck to create partitions with the FreeBSD
installation CD believing it would solve... nothing, same error.
Some months ago (with the old installer) I installed and used
debian/kfreebsd with no problems on the same machine and In the
meanwhile I also successfully installed it on VirtualBox with the same
installer iso (today's build).
I don't know what to do :(
Here's some logs
