Well, you are supposed to be running disklabel -e on md10, not md10e. You edit the disklabel on a disk or slice, not the disklabel from inside of a partition defined by that disklabel. Make sense? :) Disklabel should probably fail to actually run in this case since md10e doesn't exist and certainly wouldn't have a valid disklabel to edit if it did exist. -- John Baldwin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ PGP Key: http://www.baldwin.cx/~john/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.FreeBSD.org/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
