I may be missing the point here.....and I'm really pissed off now 'cos I 
had to sell my IIci when I moved to the US from England and the LC475 
here apparently won't ever be able to run MacBSD ;-(

Don't you need to run newfs to label the other partitions and put a 
filesystem on them?  I may of course be completely wrong but it seems to 
me that the MacOS side formatters will correctly label the root/usr/swap 
partitions, but if you leave a partition as A/UX free it doesn't label 
it.  newfs puts the filesystem on.

Please ignore this if it's wrong.  I only ever managed to run BSD for 
about a week before I came over to the States.  Will I ever be able to 
play with it again I wonder??? *sulks*

Have fun!

	Steve
