I'm not yet setup to move disks between FreeBSD and Solaris, but my first goal was to integrate it with FreeBSD's GEOM framework. We support cache flushing operations on any GEOM provider (disk, partition, slice, anything disk-like), so bascially currently I treat everything as a whole disk (because I simply can), but don't do any EFI/GPT labeling. I'll try to move data from Solaris' disk to FreeBSD and see what happen. --=20 Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.wheel.pl pjd@FreeBSD.org http://www.FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer Am I Evil?
