Do you want it to use it as FreeBSD boot medium? In that case, simply dd'ing the FreeBSD image onto the stick should be sufficient - there won't be any Linux remains left (as they are not needed - all partitioning info is in the image). > Should I suspect the USB?

Well, "gpart" is part of FreeBSD for many years now, just like the "geom" command. > Using centos and ubuntu I have never dealt with magic numbers. Can you provide a simplified list of what you did, and what seems to be the actual problem? PS. You should use a short summary of your problem or your question as the message's subject. "Hello" is not going to describe what you're asking for and what the thread may be about. It's even possible that a "Hello" message gets rejected by possible readers due to the coincidence that "Hello" is often used in spam. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
