I was setting up encrypted swap with GELI and accidentally blew away my /tmp partition with: # dd if=3D/dev/random of=3D/dev/ad0s1e bs=3D1m Understandably, it will no longer allow me to mount /tmp, so how do I use newfs to recreate the partition? I want to be absolutely sure before entering any disk modifying commands (just like I was absolutely sure last time...). I'm guessing it's as simple as: # newfs /dev/ad0s1e cheers, a1 (ps: please CC as I'm not on the list)
