Well, here's what I have on the system currently:
bob@maul:7 /home/bob> sysctl -a |grep label\\.gpt
kern.geom.label.gpt.enable: 1
kern.geom.label.gptid.enable: 0
bob@maul:7 /home/bob> gpart show -l
=> 34 488397101 diskid/DISK-S21NNSAFC51114F GPT (233G)
34 1024 1 gptboot0 (512K)
1058 16777216 2 swap0 (8.0G)
16778274 471618861 3 zfs0 (225G)
So is this to be expected? Is it the gptid setting that creates the /dev/ada0
entries?
I have another system here that has a UFS root disk and another disk that's a
ZFS disk. It is also a recent 10.1 install and it's output looks like this:
bob@tavion:5 /home/bob> sysctl -a |grep label\\.gpt
kern.geom.label.gpt.enable: 1
kern.geom.label.gptid.enable: 1
bob@tavion:5 /home/bob> gpart show -l
=> 34 976773101 ada0 GPT (466G)
34 6 - free - (3.0K)
40 16777216 1 (null) (8.0G)
