Thank you for all the comments. I have decided to go with GPT mount. I rerun size checks and was not able to reproduce the difference reported previously with or without df -H option. So, it appears to be my bad. here is a short log: % sudo mount /dev/ufs/back /backup/ % df /backup/ Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/ufs/back 50778204 2403432 44312516 5% /backup % du /backup/ 2403432 /backup/ % sudo umount /backup/ % sudo mount /dev/gpt/dback /backup % df /backup/ Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/gpt/dback 50778204 2403432 44312516 5% /backup % du /backup/ 2403432 /backup/ On 12/15/15 7:37 PM, Sergei G wrote: > I have executed the following commands: > > # gpart create -s GPT ada1 > # gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -l sback -s 50G ada1 > # newfs -nL back /dev/ada1p1 > > so, now I can mount it as either: > > # mount /dev/gpt/sback /mnt > or > # mount /dev/ufs/back /mnt > > Both seem to work.
