>Description:
I have installed bsd boot from floppy.
select A (autoconfig of hardisks),
standard install (etc..)
Then i installed via NFS from the Freebsd CD.

The config broke because i  have a 2G HD (i used only one) configured
and the configutility tried to put more on it. So while
copying it run out-of-diskspace.

I would ask for:
- please do a check for size first before installing

if the write fails you can retry or continue to next
that is useless if write failed because of diskspace. An abort
is better.
