EBR works well under FreeBSD. You just can't modify it without kernel recompilation. It is legacy partitioning scheme and I don't think the ability to modify is really needed feature for FreeBSD. GPT has more features and well supported in all systems, and it supports large disks and many partitions out of the box. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
