hail,

I have some problems trying to install 9.0-BETA3 using a serial terminal. I 
edited to have it boot
using serial console, that was fine, but I can't get it to create the slices 
the size I want. I
say 1g to create a swap, and it puts there -56GB as size. Next I try to set 4GB 
to /var, using 4g
or 4GB, and it sets 1.5GB.

 Add a new partition

to add to this, I couldn't find where to say that I'd like that or this 
partition to be formatted,
and how to create labels to it.

is this supposed to happen this way ? Am I doing something wrong ?

thanks,

matheus
