>From a new installation of Windows 7 and FreeBSD CURRENT: GEOM: ada0: partition 3 does not start on a track boundary. GEOM: ada0: partition 3 does not end on a track boundary. GEOM: ada0: partition 2 does not start on a track boundary. GEOM: ada0: partition 2 does not end on a track bounary. Partition 2 is the reserved partition while 3 is an NTFS partition, both created in the Windows setup application. Since Windows isn't bothering to align partitions do we still need to warn about it? -- Bruce Cran _______________________________________________ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
