Hello, Freebsd-geom. I'm trying to format external Extended Format drive to FAT32 under FreeBSD 9.1-STABLE I've created MBR scheme, but when I try to create primary partition I get: > sudo gpart add -t fat32 -a 4k da0 da0s1 added, but partition is not aligned on 4096 bytes > Why? According to "Using Advanced disks for old OSes like WinCP" guides it is possible to 4K-align MBR partition, but all these guides are windows-centric... -- // Black Lion AKA Lev Serebryakov <lev@FreeBSD.org>
