I have not implemented it. In fact, the c partition is not accessable by virtue of gpart not creating a provider for it. It's a purely internal partition. The raw partition can be accessed through the parent of the BSD label and that will take into account any and all permissions and re-tasting. > You are aware of newfs trying to change the partition type.

I'll take a look at it and see how it impacts things... -- Marcel Moolenaar xcllnt@mac.com
