The BSD scheme works just fine, which is the workaround I am using. The error is as follows: #gpart create -s GPT ad0p1.eli gpart: provider: Device not configured But, when I use a BSD scheme: #gpart create -s GPT ad0p1.eli ad0p1.eli created >How-To-Repeat: geli init -b -v -a hmac/sha512 -e aes-cbc -l 256 -s 4096 /dev/ad0p1 geli attach /dev/ad0p1 gpart create -s GPT ad0p1.eli >Fix: Not a real fix, but using BSD as the scheme allows you to at least partition the provider. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
