Hello, I have here the output (a bit shorted and with added calculations) of 'gpart list da0': 1. Name: da0p1 Mediasize: 524288 (512K) 512K = 512*1024 = 524288 = length index: 1 start: 1953523712 end: 1953524735 length: 524288 2. Name: da0p2 Mediasize: 274877906944 (256G) 256G = 256*1024*1024*1024 = 274877906944 = length index: 2 start: 2048 end: 536872959 length: 274877906944 3. Name: da0p3 Mediasize: 41943040 (40M) 40M = 40*1024*1024 = 41943040 = length index: 3 start: 536872960 end: 536954879 length: 41943040 4. Name: da0p4 Mediasize: 723177701376 (674G) 674G = 674*1024*1024*1024 = 723701989376 != length index: 4 start: 541067264 end: 1953523711 length: 723177701376 What I do not understand is: 1) Why differs the 'length' of da0p4 from the real value for 674G? 2) All the values for 'start', 'end' and 'length' does not make any sense to me. Can someone enlighten me a bit. Thanks matthias -- Matthias Apitz, ✉ guru@unixarea.de, http://www.unixarea.de/ +49-176-38902045 Public GnuPG key: http://www.unixarea.de/key.pub
