[-- Attachment #1 --] Having a 1TB disk with a MBR partition layout created successfully with "gpart create -s MBR ada4", which is shown as Geom name: ada4 modified: false state: OK fwheads: 16 fwsectors: 63 last: 1953525167 first: 63 entries: 4 scheme: MBR Consumers: 1. Name: ada4 Mediasize: 1000204886016 (931G) Sectorsize: 512 Mode: r0w0e0 it is impossible for me to create a partition with gpart add -t mbr ada4 as it can be read in the manpage of gpart. Whatever I do, I receive a useless error from gpart gpart: Invalid argument with no further information. In kernel, I already added GEOM_MBR. geom_part_mbr and geom_part_ldm kernel modules are then already loaded. I tried to figure out what's going wrong but this seems highly enigmatic. What am I doing wrong?
