https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=271281 --- Comment #2 from Stefan B. <sblachmann@gmail.com> --- https://www.gridbugs.org/ntfs-on-freebsd/ says: "This is one of the least helpful error messages I can imagine. gpart doesn’t let you create a partition with type “ntfs” on a disk with a GPT partition table. You’d need to make a MBR partition table instead." So, why cannot gpart just create a ms-basic-data partition if the user wants to create something like FATxxx or NTFS partitions on GPT disks? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
