All, I sent a diff to re@ for review, but I figured this is also a good place. The diff can be found here: http://mail.xcllnt.net/~marcel/g_part.diff The g_part class is a generic partitioning class with a rich set of g_ctl verbs for creating and modifying partition schemes. Currently only GPT (GUID Partition Table) and APM (Apple Partition Map) are implemented, but the KOBJ interface makes it easy to add other schemes like MBR, BSD, SUN and/or PC98. The diff only contains the kernel part. A userland tool is forthcoming. A description of the g_ctl verbs can be found here: http://wiki.freebsd.org/MarcelMoolenaar Thoughts and suggestions are welcome, -- Marcel Moolenaar xcllnt@mac.com
