If you want a filesystem covering the entire slice/disk, run disklabel -e, clone the `c' line, add the 4.2BSD 1024 8192 numbers, and use the new partition for the filesystem. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
