Can't mount filesystems?



Hello,
	Just got my copy of 2.7...damn this is gonna rock as a firewall. Anyway,
to my question -
	After finishing up the disklabel setup and hitting q to save and exit, I
get an endless loop of: "Mount point for wd0d (size=48195K) [, RET, none,
or done]?" after hitting enter I get the same thing for wd0e. I'll hit
enter as many times, and it just keeps prompting me. It will only stop
after typing done.
	My setup is wd0a 	100M            /
		    wd0b 	96M             swap
                    wd0c 	1.7GB           [spans drive]
    		    wd0d 	48M             /var
		    wd0e 	[rest of drive] /usr

After it prompts me for another drive to initialize it says I have only
configured wd0a /. Then I say I really want to proceed, I dont want to
configure network and I get this:

"/dev/wd0a on /mnt type ffs (rw, asynchronous, local)
mount_ffs: /dev/wd0d on /mnt/var: inappropraite file type or format

FATAL ERROR: Cannot mount filesystems. Double-check your configuration and
restart the installation process."

Harddrive is a Seagate 1.7GB IDE drive on a P133 w/ 64MB. Matrox Millenium
4MB card, Sohoware NIC [works fine], Toshiba 6x CD, and not much else.
