This is an 1TB internal laptop hdd, I had it on a laptop with two partitions, one had FreeBSD installed on it. The second partition was ext4. Hook up via USB Port.
Now I am trying to make it all ufs blank so I can use it for storage. I ended up going into Linux using gparted wipe the partitions, and left it like that. no partitions. due to device busy all of the time.
I went back into FreeBSD created ufs it gave me back the FreeBSD OS that was already on it. then I did this to it.
now it looks like I got two partitions again.
I do not know what is going on here.
Yet, when I open a file manager and go to /media I get this.
it keeps changing.
dd does not work, permission denied. I keep getting.
I loged out then back in
in terminal
in the file manager via /media
open a terminal from there and I get this.
it still shows two da0s1 and daos1a
what?
Shouldn't it be JUST da01????
I do not yet think I can trust this enough to use it.
keep in mind I have not grasped everything on FreeBSD including drives and partitions.
(this laptop has Windows 10, linux and Freebsd btw, hence System Reserved )
