The new limit of 26 partitions comes from the number of lower-case letters. To make use of this change, GEOM_PART needs to be used instead of GEOM_BSD (this is default in 8.0 but will not work with older kernels). » Regards. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
