The APM partitioning scheme sets up the first partition to describe itself. The old APM code in FreeBSD didn't filter it out and as such gave the first user partition slice number 2. gpart does not do that but preserve the previous naming of starting user partitions with s2. It's easily changed, but breaks backward compatibility... --=20 Marcel Moolenaar marcel@xcllnt.net
