I have a few questions about this PR: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=115406&cat=bin 1) Is this bug now officially fixed as of 8.0-RELEASE? Ie, can I expect to set up a completely GPT-based system using an Intel D945GCLF2 board and not have the installation crap out on me later? 2) The very last entry into the PR states the following: "The problem has been addressed in gart(8) and gpt(8) is obsolete, so no follow-up is to be expected at this time. Close the PR to reflect this." What exactly is "gart" and where do I find it's manpage, http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi comes up with nothing? Also, does this mean that GPT is _NOT_ in fact fixed regarding this bug? Thanks. - Sincerely, Dan Naumov
