Hello,

Yesterday, I have asked someone to install, disklabel, newfs and mount a
disk on a small local server machine.
I have forgotten to fdisk -i in the first place, it does however apparently
work well.

Please could you let me know which type of problem there could be or not at
all if we do not fdisk -i this particular disk in the future, for normal
storage use ...

Thanks for help,

Jean-Fran?ois
I would say it does not make a difference, except it might surpise you
later. You won't be able to boot from the disk (assuming i386/amd64).
Also, running fdisk -u on the disk will likely make the data
unavailable.

Yes that is i386, sorry.
