Just to clarify: If you mount file system read-write using its disk/slice/paritition name, not its label. Bascially, /dev/ufs/<label> is created on top of /dev/<partition>, so when you open /dev/<partition> to write, GEOM sends an event that metadata may be changed (the spoil event) and I should remove all providers created by using those metadata. And this is what I do. --=20 Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.wheel.pl pjd@FreeBSD.org http://www.FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer Am I Evil?
