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.


Thanks,

 - Jay
