FreeBSD fails to install
FreeBSD fails to install, every time. In Qemu, I boot off the emulated usb stick, install to the emulated hard drive, using guided install (not zfs, the other option) and leaving as much as possible at default values. Installer claims to finish, claims that all is correct. When I boot the supposedly installed system, I get this (see attachment), every time.

You installed using an emulated usb stick to the qemu emulated hard drive. This probably changed the emulated hard drive number into ada1? Or it caused the /etc/fstab which is used to mount the partitions to refer to a wrong drive number (ada0)?.
You can boot using the emulated usb stick into the live CD and investigate which are the valid drives (in dmesg). With # gpart show -p you can list the partitions.Then mount the hard drive root partition and check the contents of /etc/fstab and correct the drive number.

Thank you very much. p.s. and without having to do a chroot or an intramdisk rebuild. Yay! |
