--- Comment #6 from [email protected] <[email protected]> --- a) What do you mean 'works well under FreeBSD' when you cannot add/delete any partitions in the EBR slice ? b) Suggesting GPT because EBR is non-functional under FreeBSD adds an unwanted twist. GPT is not what people need. People usually need MBR (particularly under FreeBSD), which provides multiple benefits: 1) GPT has no limit on number of partitions, and a GPT disk is permitted to be a jungle. The MBR schema on the other hand is 3 primary partitions (each of which can host OS root) + a sub-divisible EBR (which cannot host OS root). 2) MBR permits use of boot0cfg, the tidiest boot manager. Unless a disk really is > 2TB, GPT must not be used. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
