            Bug ID: 232463
           Summary: EBR slice cannot be added partitions to
           Product: Base System
           Version: 10.4-RELEASE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: bin
          Assignee: bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: bourne.identity at hotmail.com

I have been using FreeBSD for 20 years. There is one problem in the base system
that simply does not go away : when I create an EBR slice with gpart and put
the header on it as such (gpart create -s EBR <dev_node>), things work.

But the moment I try creating partitions within the EBR slice created as above,
I start getting failure : Operation cancelled; Pre-check failed.

Can somebody please make sure FreeBSD's EBR implementation works smoothly ? The
BSD nesting schema will be of much less significance in the coming days
compared to the EBR schema.
