Hi folks; I'm writing this mail regarding a strange issue while formatting a parting as ext2 on a x86 machine running Freebsd 10.1 with MBR partitioning with BSDDISKLABEL support enabled. Warning: could not erase sector 0: Operation not permitted or Warning: could not erase sector 0: Attempt to write block to file system resulted in short write If I try to format same partition as UFS. Formatting is clean which I think proves that HDD (512 byte sectors) is good. This is not HDD or kernel issue as in GPT partitioning case I use same kernel. Does BSD disk label or MBR partitioning require anything extra (other than FS system support) to be enabled in kernel? I have posted more details and logs here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/390050/creating-a-ext2-partition-on-freebsd-10-1-running-on-x86-based-box-with-mbr-part Appreciate any help that can guide my debugging for this issue.
