Speedy said:I have similar problem. Trying to install 8.0 to an empty disk. There is something 8 does not like about drive geometry, no matter what I do it complains no node is created in /dev. I used 6.2 install to partition and label the drive, no problem. Booting from 8 install - disk is seen as empty, from 6.2 install CD the slice with labels is there.
See my post above?
