[OpenIndiana-discuss] Failed to install as a VM

[Jean-Pierre]

Hi,

I am having some difficulty installing Hipster on a real
machine in a multiboot situation (for some reason the
Hipster boot loader does not get plugged into the mbr).

So, I am trying to debug the case on VirtualBox, but for
some reason this fails into an fdisk creation issue.
Of course the partitioning was done beforehand, and I
was not expecting the installer to meddle with it.

What does this mean ?

Regards

Jean-Pierre
