Thomas Nikolajsen <[email protected]> added the comment: Patch supplied in prev. message didn't solve problem: after applying patch disk slice is read-only after 'disklabel -W <slice>', so dd fails (trying to zero initial part of slice).
Details on disk/slice: fdisk -i ad4 # install MBR disklabel64 -rw ad4s2 auto # initially (slice empty) succeeds disklabel64 -W ad4s2 dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ad4s2 bs=512 count=32 # succeedes on master; fails w/ patch (issue1667 Feb. 9th 2010) (read-only) disklabel32 -rw ad4s2 auto # fails 'disk already has a label of a different type' disklabel64 ad4s2 # shows 64-bit label -thomas _____________________________________________________ DragonFly issue tracker <[email protected]> <http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issue1667> _____________________________________________________
