Hi; Os: FreeBSD amd64 w/ options GEOM_PART_GPT I added a drive to my system which I installed win7 64. The drive is 500G. I gave 100G to win7. Then I created an ext2 partition with the unallocated space with a gparted cd. fdisk shows the MBR of the drive with the win7 system and data partitions and the ext2 partition created. I need to access both the NTFS win7 and ext2 partitions from freeBSD. FBSD "sees" the drive (ada2) but does not "see" the partitions. I need to access the ext2 partition from both FBSD and win7. I have another ext2 on the other drive that both OSs see fine but that drive has MBR scheme. Win7 only installs in a GPT partition. What I really need if for FBSD to access that drive. I've googled for a couple days but didn't find any clues that could help me. Anybody has any hints on how I could make this work?
