panic during install

[Matthew Dillon]

:That's a test HDD that I've been installing to over and over.  Whatever
:was there before, should've been blown away by an immediately preceding
:"newfs /mnt/var" command, I think.
:
:Hmm, the difference here might be that I ran "newfs /mnt/var" more than
:once.  I'll try to reproduce it by doing that again, and get back to
:you.
:
:Thanks,
:-Chris

    Another possibility is that you have overlapping partitions and the newfs
    is blowing away part of another filesystem (or a newfs on another fs on
    that disk is blowing away this filesystem).
