I have a couple of things > I need to do first, 7.1-RC2 being one of them... > I think, I can try to fix this if you give me couple advices (mostly about what code I should look and change) I spent some time in thinking about the best way to implement naming of extended partition. IMO, the only reasonable way is to sequentially numerate slices. So the result may look like this: ad0s3s1 ad0s3s2 ad0s3s3 ad0s3s4 ad0s3s5 .... Main problem here is detecting which type of naming to use in particilar case. Marcel, it would be nice if you point me which files in /usr/src I should look, and, maybe, give link to some short article about GEOM internal structure. Then I'll be able to stuck deep in sources for a few days :)
