Hello
I've installed freebsd on a 250 gb disk, however I made only 1 slice. I have there 8 partitions now, and I cannod add more. So my current partitions are about 50 GB, and I have about 200 GB free space.
So I have two options:
1. Change the slice size, so I can make second ant third slices with their partitions and I'll use all the space of the disk
2. Tune the system so I can make more than 8 partitions in one slice.
I am searching about the issue now, but I cannot find information about the problem.
I saw phoenix wrote about new limit of the partitions count - 26, but my sistem add new partitions as "X".
I'll be gladfull if someone can help me with this issue. You can point me some utilities for changing the slice size "on the fly" or to increase the partitions limit per slice. Both works for me.
Last chance for me is to dd the partitions on some removeable media (this is laptop), resetup the disk with correct slice options and move back the data, which is a little bit hard for me right now.
Thank you in advance!
