I don't think that is it, but I will try, thank you. I'm pretty sure the label that OpenBSD and/or Ubuntu left me with is a Solaris type. And dumb me, I didn't consider OBP as helping the install too. So the questions remain if I can install OBP without Solaris, and if I'll have to crack open the case. I'll see...
The error from setup is like "newfs failed". If I run newfs manually, ALMOST no matter I try, it always seems to tell me my numbers are wrong. I've tried various -f and -i values. But I did find some that worked, but then I guess setup still wants to re-newfs it and gets it wrong. Setup doesn't show the whole message but I assume it is using the wrong numbers or something.
