To answer the question - you use gpart to partition the drive and zpool to format it. e.g. for a single disk with no zraid: gpart create -s gpt devicenode gpart add -t freebsd-zfs -l label devicenode zpool create poolname /dev/gpt/label -- Bruce Cran _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
