Sorry, thanks for informing me. It's particularly frustrating since OSX IS FreeBSD, under the hood. WHEN will Apple show their gratitude? I suspect never. It's a give and take relationship. The FreeBSD community gave and Apple took. They don't even create a FreeBSD version of iTunes. A-holes.

Re: using /sbin/gpart to add GPT volume

2011-10-11 Thread Thomas Mueller
I don't think you can use gpart on a slice of an MBR-partitioned disk. You can run "man gpart" if you didn't already; I didn't see anything to migrate an MBR partition table to GPT. The older gpt, which NetBSD still uses, can migrate an MBR partition table to GPT. You could try Roderick Smith'
