Is there a particular reason you've decided to glabel your partitions

metadata sector at the end of the GPT partition is interfering with
the filesystem.

I'd try labelling my partitions (gpart modify -i 2 -l root ada0;
gpart modify -i 3 -l swap), then change fstab to reference the gpt
labels (dev(gpt/root) instead of the glabel ones.


No reason at all really. I had just used it like that on a previous MBR based system and it worked fine. I have just booted it using the USB stick again and removed both labels metadata using glabel stop and clear and changed the fstab to use /dev/gpt/ labels now. Unfortunately the same issue persists. It mounted fine, but when I rebooted it it synced all buffers successfully but then gave the same error saying that it couldn't unmount /.
