I encountered some problems installing FreeBSD 7 beta 2 on my Dell
D610 laptop, on the original 60 gb hd; the hd is formatted as follows:
- primary 1, 15 gb, ntfs for Windows XP
- primary 2, 15 gb, solaris for Open Solaris
- primary 3, 10 gb, fat32 for FreeBSD
- extended, 20 gb, 3 partitions for linux

I tried to install FreeBSD many times, but after the geometry error
(the geometry is however correctly recognized), FDISK doesn't find any
partition and the space is shown as free, unpartitioned.

I tried to set the partition type for FreeBSD to FAT16, FAT32, FreeBSD
and I also reformatted the partition many times, but with no success.

have you any idea???

Thanks in advance.


PS

I wrote also to the italian mailing list gufi, without reply.

bye
