You seem to want to be able to stack a number of modifications before actually pushing them. Actually, gpart(8) already can do that! Please see the "OPERATIONAL FLAGS" section in gpart(8). In between your tentative modifications, just use 'gpart show' to see where you stand. Thanks and regards. -- Olivier Certner
