I have the 0412 snap installed and I upgraded to the current kernel by replacing just the /usr/src/sys tree and compiling it. This kernel complains 'rejecting partition in BSD label: it isn't entirely within the slice' at boot and whenever a filesystem is mounted, but the system uses the filesystem without any problems. However, fdisk and disklabel do not work. Is this a real problem or am I suffering from version skew between the kernel and other utilities? -- Toomas Losin a00776@giant.rsoft.bc.ca (8-bit) Richmond, BC, Canada Toomas_Losin@mindlink.bc.ca (7-bit)
