Recently, I thought I'd try out Linux on this machine (I don't know why, I
can't see what all the fuss is about). Anyway, whenever I boot FreeBSD I see
warnings like these:
wd0s1: raw partition size != slice size
wd0s1: start 63, end 5526359, size 5526297
wd0s1c: start 63, end 12594959, size 12594897
wd0s1: truncating raw partition
wd0s1: rejecting partition in BSD label: it isn't entirely within the slice
wd0s1: start 63, end 5526359, size 5526297
wd0s1e: start 1089599, end 12594959, size 11505361
is there anything I can do to shut these up? It seems to be harmless, I
can access the Linux partition fine in Linux and the BSD one fine under
BSD, which is all I need, they're just starting to annoy me a bit now.
- fdisk information -
******* Working on device /dev/rwd0 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=784 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl)
parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:

Media sector size is 512
Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:
