I've followed everything in the installation guided for setting up the partitions, and I've tried turning on/off Synchronous mode on my scsi controller (with SCSIPrefs). I'm trying to install on an external IMPRIMIS 1 Gb drive. It has the following partitions: IDH0 - 500Mb Amiga DOS FFS partition IDH1 - 25Mb OpenBSD root partition (empty) IDH2 - 45Mb OpenBSD swap partition (empty, expt for 8% of inst-20.fs) IDH3 - 150Mb OpenBSD /usr partition (empty) IDH4 - 277Mb OpenBSD /usr/local/ partition (empty) I'm using the following: xstreamtodev --input=inst-20.fs --rdb-name=IDH2 It finds everything, and asks if I want to start the transfer, it gets going, then quits. I double checked all the start and end cylinders to make sure there was no overlap, and I couldn't find anything wrong. Double checked the custom filesystem types for OpenBSD, and they are correct according to the INSTALL.amiga guide. Any ideas? -- Bob Campbell (303) 499-0409
