Hum, no, if you're using MBR and not GPT, you can't use gpart, you have to do something aweful like this : # dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ada0 count=1 # sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=0x10 # dd if=/boot/zfsboot of=/dev/ada0 skip=1 seek=1024 might be ada0s1 and not ada0, or something (please, don't do that unless you're sure you're doing it right.) -- Mathieu Arnold _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
