Hi Why does the bsdlabel program autogenerate the 'a' partition? If I edit the disk label removing all partitions except for 'c' and then save it, a subsequent read of the disk label shows an 'a' partition has been made covering the whole disk. Even if I make another partition using the whole disk, it still makes 'a', which has to be deleted to create other partitions because of the resulting overlap. Ian
