Hello, > The i386 port uses the generic disklabel code, which has 32 bit logical > block addressing, which means that the partitions themselves are limited > to 1TB or so. Will this change or GEOM will be the standard method? (and thanks, I forgot that all of this is on IA-32)

Will this have any drawbacks comparing to the usual way (for example stability, speed)? Is it in production use somewhere? Could you please give me some pointers on this topic? (some kind of how-to about the usage of this stuff, there isn't much about it, just the manpage. Where could I find the userland part?)
