I could create a new partition using
disklabel -e ad0s1
The result is a new 'g' partition:
messias# disklabel ad0s1
# /dev/ad0s1:
8 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
a: 2097152 0 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552
b: 2097152 2097152 swap
c: 160071597 0 unused 0 0 # "raw" part,
don't edit
d: 6291456 4194304 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552
e: 4194304 10485760 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552
f: 83886080 14680064 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552
g: 61505453 98566144 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552
When I try to format it:
messias# newfs -O2 /dev/ad0s1g
newfs: /dev/ad0s1g: failed to open disk for writing
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Les
