My goal was to install the debian GNU/bsd system, but things seemed to be messed up. I've tried the mini.iso and full net-iso for both the gnu/bsd and gnu/linux system (i386) and no matter what I try it fails to partition my drive. eg. "[!!] Partition disks Failed to create a file system The ufs file system creation in partition #6 of ATA1 (ad0) failed" No matter what option I try, the default, all-in-one partition, the seperation /home partition, etc., it doesn't work.
I (almost) always partition my drives manually, and recently installed Debian i386 5.0.8 DVD 1 on one machine and Debian i386 6.0.0 DVD 1 on two others without any problems.
