From: Hannes Hauswedell <freebsd@soulrebel.in-berlin.de> To: bug-followup@freebsd.org Cc: Subject: Re: kern/131037: [geli] Unable to create disklabel on .eli-Device Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2009 15:06:44 +0000 The panic seems not to be connected to the warning. I partitioned the .eli with gpt and received no warnings, but still got a reboot while writing. I changed some options on the raid-adapter (which isn't supported by freebsd anyway - the raid is softraid) and now I don't have any panics. So GPT works fine for me and I will be using that. I can't verify whether it would have worked with bsdlabels as well but I think so. The warning in itself should still be considered a bug, but not really important. You may change or close this PR, however you see fit. In case someone wants to work on the warning, here are the infos that may help: Warning appears if you have UFS <-> bsd-partition <-> bsdlabel <-> .eli <-> freebsd-slice -> /dev/ad0s1.elia Warning DOES NOT appear if you have: UFS <-> .eli <-> freebsd-slice ->/dev/ad0s1.eli OR: UFS <-> bsd-partition <-> bsdlabel <-> .eli -> /dev/ad0.elia OR: UFS <-> gpt-partition <-> gpt-layout <-> .eli <-> freebsd-slice -> /dev/ad0s1.elip1 OR: UFS <-> bsd-partition <-> bsdlabel <-> freebsd-slice -> /dev/ad0s1a Regards, Hannes
