[Bug 262617] ZFS pool on USB drive does not mount correctly on startup

https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=262617 --- Comment #5 from donaldcallen@gmail.com --- (In reply to Graham Perrin from comment #4) If you mean how the partitions were set up prior to creating a zfs pool on the whole disk, I used gpart to create a GPT partitioning scheme with one partition containing a UFS2 filesystem. For what it's worth, I am guessing that the messages about the primary GPT being corrupted are a major clue. I am further guessing that the zfs pool creation left the secondary GPT table intact, confusing another part of the system into thinking this device had a GPT setup that had had its primary table corrupted. Note that it says it is using the secondary GPT table, so apparently it thinks that is valid. If I were trying to fix this, I would investigate this line of reasoning (I'm an old -- literally -- OS internals guy, having run the Tenex project for years at BBN in the ARPANet and early Internet days). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
