This is happening in all scenarois: - Installing from CD (release 03/2011) - Installing from DVD (release 02/2011) - full standard installation or custome installation - minimal configuration or installing everything. - with autoseting and also with manual setting of slice and pations.

The behaviour you are seeing might be because of improper installation or anything, but severely lacks information that would assist in tracking a PR. If you have generated more information that might be usable, please get back to me so that we can denote that properly. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=161214 >Unformatted:
