Re: bsdlabel does not create geli slices ie; /dev/ad4s1.elia - fix
Hi, OK, i think i found the problem: I have attached a usb-memory disk and tried to same steps, i got same error: 'bsdlabel -w /dev/da0s1.eli', 'bsdlabel -e /dev/da0s1.eli', and 'newfs /dev/da0s1.elia': 'Could not find special device'. Then, i deleted all partitions, and created single partition and labelled it as FreeBSD partition => 165. Then i followed same steps and i did see '/dev/da0s1.elia' device node in /dev. In short, the partition should be labblled as FreeBSD (165). I don't know why this is must.
