Hi, in general, I try to create the partitions with gpart, add a label with glabel and put a filesystem. I think that I am doing something very simple the wrong way but I cannot see the error. I try to do it in the following way: # gpart destroy -F da0 # gpart create -s GPT da0 # gpart add -t freebsd-boot -s 64k da0 # gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr -p /boot/gptboot -i 1 da0 # gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -s 512m -a 4k -l Toshiba16GB2boot da0 # gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -s 10m -a 4k -l Toshiba16GB2root da0 # gpart add -t freebsd-swap -s 10m -a 4k -l Toshiba16GB2swap da0 # gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -s 10m -a 4k -l Toshiba16GB2var da0 # gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -s 10m -a 4k -l Toshiba16GB2tmp da0 # gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -a 4k -l Toshiba16GB2usr da0 Label the partitions: # glabel label Toshiba16GB2boot /dev/da0p2 # glabel label Toshiba16GB2root /dev/da0p3 # glabel label Toshiba16GB2swap /dev/da0p4 # glabel label Toshiba16GB2var /dev/da0p5 # glabel label Toshiba16GB2tmp /dev/da0p6 # glabel label Toshiba16GB2usr /dev/da0p7 And put a file system onto the partitions. # newfs /dev/label/Toshiba16GB2boo # newfs /dev/label/Toshiba16GB2roo # newfs /dev/label/Toshiba16GB2var # newfs /dev/label/Toshiba16GB2tmp # newfs /dev/label/Toshiba16GB2usr But newfs on the first partition results in this: Filesystem size 15 < minimum size of 48 When I ran the newfs directly on the device, I get this: [X220]/home/erich (root) > newfs /dev/da0p2 /dev/da0p2: 512.0MB (1048576 sectors) block size 32768, fragment size 4096 using 4 cylinder groups of 128.03MB, 4097 blks, 16512 inodes. super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at: 192, 262400, 524608, 786816 Of course, this is what I expect. I believe that it is something simple but I am not able to see my mistake. Erich
