I just got a no-name 1TB usb stick. Under FreeBSD11.0, I can see the device: root@apron:~ # geom disk list da2 Geom name: da2 Providers: 1. Name: da2 Mediasize: 1073741824000 (1.0T) Sectorsize: 512 Mode: r0w0e0 descr: (null) ident: (null) rotationrate: unknown fwsectors: 63 fwheads: 255 root@apron:~ # glabel label -v TEST da2 Metadata value stored on da2. Done. but root@apron:~ # glabel status da2 root@apron:~ # I zero'd the first and last 1MB and re-tried the label operation, but all the sectors were still zero. I tried to use the usbdump utility and I can see *something* is written. gpart appears to do the right thing. newfs on the raw device appears to do the right thing. geli init complains it can't find the metadata. Can anybody clue me into how I can get this to work correctly? I need to glabel it so I can devd an event, it needs to be geli encrypted/checksummed within the label. Thanks for any help -- lee
