OK, thanks, I'll look ... the lvm doc looks like it is untouched from
linux, makes it very hard to know what is happening...

| Works for me...
Just try making a ccd by combining a 512 byte sector drive and a 4K
sector drive, and watch what happens... Or put a cgd on a 4K sector
drive, and then attempt to fix the obvious bug. It is a mess. Things
still get very confused as to where inside the kernel "sectors" are
really sectors, and where they're DEV_BSIZE units, which can lead to
conversions happening improperly sometimes. This isn't to say that it
gets things wrong in the common cases, just that it is a mess...
