Your second mail here seems to contain the output of 'ls /dev'.

Sure, the device nodes exist. That does not mean that the partitions
are created. Check the output of something like

$ doas disklabel sd0

(replace sd0 with whatever your actual storage device is recognized as)
and you'll see what partitions you have and their sizes.

The install guide part of the FAQ (and actually all of the FAQ) is well
worth your time reading.

All the best,
Peter
