I've run across this on quite a few installs and this time I want to nail the solution down:
I have a box I want to use in a render farm and I need only FreeBSD on it. On previous installs on other machines I noticed that the DD option is not available on the FDISK screen even though it describes it on the help (F1 screen). Why?
Now again I'm faced with the cursed error message "disk geometry does not match..." and I remember on other installs having to futz around with drive geometry settings till I was blue in the face to get the disk recognized. What am I missing here?
