I'm experiencing problems setting up a partition in some free space
between two existing partitions on a drive:
This is the current setup:
curlew:/root# gpart show ada2
=> 63 625142385 ada2 MBR (298G)
63 125829081 1 freebsd (60G)
125829144 186731496 - free - (89G)
312560640 312576705 2 ntfs (149G)
625137345 5103 - free - (2.5M)
I'd assumed that I could do this, but it fails
curlew:/root# gpart add -t freebsd-zfs -b 125829144 -s 186731496 ada2
gpart: Invalid argument
What am I doing wrong?
