while installing netbsd1.1, i got the following error after specifying
the sizes of the various netbsd partitions...
Initializing disk sd0...
With a block size of 16384 minimum bytes per inode is 5957
Minimum bytes per inode is 5957
With 16865 sectors per cylinder, minimum cylinders per group is 32
This requires the block size to be changed from 8192 to 16384
and the fragment size to be changed from 1024 to 4096
this is with an adaptec 2940 controller and a 2 gig scsi drive. the
partition i'm setting aside for netbsd is 1670MB. what should i do? it
seems that the partition is too large for the default params for
making a new filesystem. i could split it into two smaller partitions
if that would be easiest, as long as i could mount one of them as the
home directory partition. i know how to do this in linux, but not bsd.
thanks for the help... matt
