<![CDATA[Rc3 install failing on supermicro 5015a-phf bsdlable failed code 1]]>i have tried both amd64 and i386 however whenever i try to install rc3 to the local disk from cd i get the error
"Exxecution of the command
/sbin/bsdlable -B -r -w ad4s1 auto
FAILED with a return code of 1."

i have previously been running rc2 on this box but wanted to do a fresh install.

any ideas? i searched (here and google) but most info is very old or not related
