I have an encrypted partition, /dev/da0s1d. I can use geli attach da0s1d and obtain a device /dev/da0s1d.eli, which is a UFS filesystem. All that works just fine. I'd like to label /dev/da0s1d so that I don't have to refer to the exact drive number, etc., which might change if I reboot with a USB stick in the system or whatever. But glabel puts the label in the last sector, which is where GELI stores metadata. So, how do I make this work? -- J. Porter Clark <jpc@porterclark.com>
