Um, you do realize this is a "physical" problem with metadata location and cannot be solved in any meaningful way? Geom_label stores its label in the last sector of the device, and GPT stores the "secondary" / backup table also at the end of the device. The two can NEVER work together. The same goes for any other GEOM class which stores metadata and GPT.
The proper way for this is to have these things store their metadata in the first/last sector of the provider, not the underlying device.
This means that, if you have GPT within GLABEL, for example -- you will only see the GPT label if you first see the GLABEL.
I guess the present situation was created out of laziness ;) _______________________________________________ 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"
