New submission from Thomas Nikolajsen <[email protected]>: Changing disk label from disklabel to disklabel64 format or vice versa needs reboot (or disk change, eg natacontrol detach / attach).
This has worked without reboot earlier, as described in disklabel(8) & disklabel64(8); problem was introduced with devfs as I remeber. Problem seems to be that in kernel disklabel survives erasure of label on device (disklabel -W .. / dd if=/dev/zero of=DISK ..) -thomas ---------- messages: 8106 nosy: thomas.nikolajsen status: unread title: disklabel / disklabel64 change needs reboot / disk change _____________________________________________________ DragonFly issue tracker <[email protected]> <http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issue1667> _____________________________________________________
