Heya Everyone,=20 I have a FreeBSD 6.4 system with a Promise array attached to it via a Qlogi= c Fibre Channel card. I have been unable to get 7.2 to get past the FW:Get mailbox error, so I installed FREEBSD 8.0 on it, and have been playing around. I am used to GPT, and have set up all of the partitions in the past using it. I see that someone did GPTE, but I can't seem to get it to see th= e devices and partitions in the same way that it did before. Since GPTE seems experimental, and self-proclaimed as 'hackerish' what should I use to cut u= p a 25.5tb array? GPART? I am at a loss at the moment. I thought that GPTE wa= s doing what I needed, but when I try and mount the partitions, I get no success. What am I missing? -Trevor
