You need to extend your e slice (with disklabel -e da0s1) first. You've got three "container" objects: Fdisk slices, BSD partitions, and filesystem. You've grown the slice, but you need to also expand the partition before growfs can resize the filesystem. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
