One fix for the gptzfsboot man page would be to mention that gptzfsboot is installed into a GPT partition of type freebsd-boot, and that the -i 1 refers to the GPT index for this partition. -- DISCLAIMER: No electrons were maimed while sending this message.

We are missing that from the gptboot.8 page also. gptzfsboot is installed in a freebsd-boot partition, usually the first partition on the disk. A ``protective MBR'' (see gpart(8)) is typically used in combination with gptzfsboot. To install gptzfsboot on the ada0 drive: gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr -p /boot/gptzfsboot -i 1 ada0 ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
