partitioning program for FreeBSD


During installation FreeBSD 5.2.1 uses the "FDISK partition editor". After installation i tried to use fdisk, however neither the "FDISK partition editor" user interface appeared, nor the well-known "fdisk" program, which i usually use in Linux. I tried to read the fdisk man, but i didn't understand anything. It didn't look like the well-known "fdisk" partitioning program, with the usual -l and -s paramethers, etc. What is going on? How can i partiton my HD?

Run /stand/sysinstall then select configure then fdisk. Once you partition them you will need to run sysinstall again and select configure and select the label option.
