It's typical to dd some zeroes to the start of a volume to clean out old info, but if geom is going to aggressively ressurect a purposely -nuked GPT based on the backup info (which is hard to find and dd over by hand) this is going to add up to a lot of frustration for those of us who have to frequently work with regenerating sdcard and CF images. -- Ian
