i have one more (very weird) problem with gbde (the tool, this time).
doing "gbde init /dev/foo -i" works for one of two partitions that i
want
to use with gbde, but not the other.

after writing the template and quitting vi, i get
"gbde: write sector 0: Operation not permitted"

...what could be causing this?

Did you by any chance set random_flush = YES in the template? If so, you
ran into a known bug in gbde(8).

(IMHO this should be fixed, removed from
/usr/src/sbin/gbde/template.txt, or added to the Errata pages).
