Subject: Install utility won't recognize my drive

I format my 45Mb drive (with the "Alliance Power Tools") to put MacBSD on;
I set it for a Root partition of 38Mb, Swap 4Mb, and Mac HFS ~2Mb. Then I
run the Install Utility 0.2 to put the MacBSD files on it. This worked
once before, but now the Install Utility gives me errors right after I tell
it that my drive is at SCSI address 2:
Mounting partition 'A' as /
read_block2:Error on SCSIRead(), # 5
failed mountfs(), error 22.
Error mounting root.
mount root. : Undefined error: 0
What did I do wrong, or do I just have bad karma? What is the correct way
to set up a drive with "Alliance Power Tools"?
There are no physical problems with the drive; it formats and partitions
without any errors at all.
