Kukulies" Subject: disk fdisking/labeling in a running 2.2? To: freebsd-questions@freefall.FreeBSD.org Message-id: <199605111156.NAA06067@gilberto.physik.rwth-aachen.de> Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Is there a safe way to fdisk/label a disk in a running 2.2 system these days? Say, run /stand/sysinstall and do the partitioning/labeling portion and commit it without running danger of partitioning the wrong drive :-) --Chris Christoph P. U.
