Kanter" To: FreeBSD questions Subject: Max partitions per slice Message-ID: <20000924100235.A82162@freebsd.mindspring.com> Mail-Followup-To: FreeBSD questions Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-md5; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; boundary="X1bOJ3K7DJ5YkBrT" Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2.5i X-Operating-System: FreeBSD 4.1-STABLE Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG --X1bOJ3K7DJ5YkBrT Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I understand that the maximum number of partitions per slice is 8, but I can't seem to get all 8. When I installed FreeBSD 4.1 RELEASE, I was only able to create this mouting scheme: /dev/ad0s2a on / (ufs, local) /dev/ad0s2d on /home (ufs, local) /dev/ad0s2g on /tmp (ufs, local) /dev/ad0s2e on /usr (ufs, local) /dev/ad0s2h on /usr/src (ufs, local) /dev/ad0s2f on /var (ufs, local) That's 7 to me (with swap...hmm, but with the all-encompassing "c" partition that does bring everything to 8). When I tried creating other partitions, I got an X next to them in disklabel. Is there something I'm doing wrong?=20 --=20 David Kanter --X1bOJ3K7DJ5YkBrT Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.3 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE5zheLWfgr3tXvHGIRAiPsAJ9HasB+E6RAvyKf1txRSLL9p2y5WQCfe9iO 5AMGRDgX5NmGMOK/+XLUDrw= =iOzN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --X1bOJ3K7DJ5YkBrT-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
