I get a weird error using disklabel. "Warning, partition c doesn't start at 0! Warning, partition c doesn't cover the whole unit! Warning, An incorrect partition c may cause problems for standard system" The thing is, it occured after a double upgrade: FreeBSD 4.6.2 -> 5.0 BIOS upgrade (better support for large disks). The weird part is that my old 4.6.2 disk is still in, which never gave those errors before, well it now does too. The system is FreeBSD 5.0 on a Digital PC 3500. Thanks for any suggestions. ---- nemesis# disklabel -r /dev/ad0s1 # /dev/ad0s1: type: ESDI disk: ad0s1 label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 255 sectors/cylinder: 16065 cylinders: 4865 sectors/unit: 78165360 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 327680 63 4.2BSD 2048 16384 20488 # (Cyl. 0*- 20*) b: 1007984 327743 swap # (Cyl. 20*- 83*) c: 78156162 63 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0*- 4864*) d: 1007616 1335727 4.2BSD 2048 16384 62984 # (Cyl. 83*- 145*) e: 1024000 2343343 4.2BSD 2048 16384 64008 # (Cyl. 145*- 209*) f: 18120704 3367343 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 # (Cyl. 209*- 1337*) g: 20971520 21488047 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 # (Cyl. 1337*- 2642*) h: 35696658 42459567 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28512 # (Cyl. 2642*- 4864*) Warning, partition c doesn't start at 0!
