That works fine but the kernel is not able to core dump to my swap (ad4p3a) and I can't break into the debuger (laptop with an usb keyboard). So I would like to revert to slices like with FreeBSD 7.2? Thanks, regards. baby-jane:~$ gpart show => 34 312581741 ad4 GPT (149G) 34 6 - free - (3.0K) 40 409600 1 efi (200M) 409640 226230272 2 !48465300-0000-11aa-aa11-00306543ecac (108G) 226639912 262144 - free - (128M) 226902056 85679712 3 !ebd0a0a2-b9e5-4433-87c0-68b6b72699c7 (41G) 312581768 7 - free - (3.5K) => 0 85679712 ad4p3 BSD (41G) 0 4194304 2 freebsd-swap (2.0G) 4194304 1572864 1 freebsd-ufs (768M) 5767168 2097152 4 freebsd-ufs (1.0G) 7864320 2097152 5 freebsd-ufs (1.0G) 9961472 75718240 6 freebsd-ufs (36G)
