gpart ufs size problem

[vecihi]

Hello,

On FreeBSD 8.3 stable system I got this error:

# gpart add -b 2016 -s 11712877029 -t freebsd -i 1 mfid0
gpart: size: '11712877029' : Invalid argument

I used UFS file system.

What is your suggestion?

Thanks
Regards,

You can use K, M, G and T for the size too. As in -s 10G.

If you do not use a suffix, the size is interpreted as blocks, not bytes.

I got this error on auto-Install of PC-BSD. If disk size is huge, the installation fails. So I have to change shell script code. Is there another way to fix it without using K, M, G and T?
