That does seem to be the case. If I add any partition > 1048576MB it goes awry.

I have just managed to get through an install with this layout:

Filesystem        Size       Used      Avail %Cap Mounted on
/dev/ld0a         198M        28M       160M  15% /

ptyfs             1.0K       1.0K         0B 100% /dev/pts



however .. despite everything being mounted and appearing to run ok, I
keep getting this in dmesg:

ld0: no raw partition and partition table is full
ld0: no raw partition and partition table is full
ld0: no raw partition and partition table is full
ld0: no raw partition and partition table is full

It's a little worrying. Also disk label does not seem to have a c or d
defined. Is this going to get me in trouble? I'm leary of letting
disklabel write anything at this point.
