Hi,
I had previously installed Freebsd 11 on ssd, and wanted to repurpose the disks for regular storage on a new build with 12
Unfortunately when I tried to create a pool using those ssd, I get an error saying "device busy" or "operation not permitted".
I've tried a number of things, but nothing works. This is very frustrating. Is there anything that can be done to clean the disk. In the past I've had success with dd command. But now, even that doesn't allow me to wipe the disk. Is there any way to FORCE wipe the disk and use it again. Appreciate your help.
Here are things I've tried:
gpart show
>>
0 ##### ada0 BSD (500G)
0 #### 1 freebsd-ufs (496G)
### #### 2 freebsd-swap (4G)
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/ada0 bs=512 count=3
>> dd: ... operation not permitted
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/ada0 bs=512 count=3
>> dd: ... operation not permitted
