      Anyone else getting this error during installation, specifically when trying to format the drive?
      Anyone know how to fix it?
      pfSense has this issue for me in RC1, 2 & 3. Went back through my copies and tested them all.

      Execution of Command
      /sbin/bsdlabel -B -r -w ad4s1 auto
      FAILED with a return code of 1

      Install
      pfSense-2.0-RC3-amd64

      Hardware:
      AMD X4 965 3.4G AM3
      ASUS M4A88T-M AM
      Kingston 8GB RAM
      Seagate SATA 250GB

      Thanks
      Malossi

        That can sometimes be an issue in the BIOS making accessing the drive a bit odd. You could try doing a custom install, make a smaller / (say 7GB or so) and then use the rest for /usr/ and see if that works.
