by Hi,
I'm installing a new Seagate ST360021A 60GB hdd into my server for more
space. I'm running into some issues where I get an error message:
"disklabel: partition a: partition extends past end of unit"
There's got to be an easy fix to this, however, I can't see what I'm
doing wrong. :(
I've read the FAQ on www.openbsd.org and I've scoured the fdisk &
disklabel for clues ...I remain clueless. ;)
This seems like a common newbie issue, given Marc's entry on 02/08/2002.
At any rate, I've included my dmesg, fdisk wd3 and disklabel wd3
responses at the bottom of this.
Thanks to anyone with the patience to help me. :D
