I am in the process of installing SunOS 4.1.1 on our system.  When I went
to newfs the root filesystem xd0a, It printed out a warning stating:

1 sector unallocated 

and proceeded to make the partition but with one less sector than was in
the filesystem. Does anyone have ideas as to the cause of this message and
a solution.

Thanks alot
