Bug ID: 253496
Summary: /usr/libexec/bsdinstall/auto active workaround
Product: Base System
Version: 12.2-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: bin
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
I was having a look in that file, saw that there was a workaround for the
Latitude E7440, and thought whatever it needed was bound to be necessary on my
E6440 as well. And maybe it was that partition error message that I get at
boot.
This led me to bug #194359 , which sure sounds like it. So I gave the offered
"gpart set -a active [disk]" a try, and it worked! No more "Invalid partition
table!" at boot. Which also leads to a documentation question of: If there's
anything in gpart(8) about setting active on an entire drive and not just an
MBR partition, I don't see it. So is it meant to be somewhat
secret/undocumented, as it's only for certain screwy systems?
