Hi all,

I'm trying to mount an external 250GB USB disk under OpenBSD 4.0
(macppc).

First of all, I reinitialized the disk using fdisk:

---
# fdisk -e sd0
Enter 'help' for information
fdisk: 1> reinit
In memory copy is initialized to:
Offset: 0 Signature: 0xAA55
Starting Ending LBA Info:
#: id C H S - C H S [ start: size ]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
*0: 06 0 0 2 - 1 0 1 [ 1: 2048 ] DOS >
32MB
1: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused
2: 00 0 0 0 - 0 0 0 [ 0: 0 ] unused
3: A6 2 0 1 - 239370 63 32 [ 4096: 490227712 ]
OpenBSD
Use 'write' to update disk.
fdisk:*1> write
Writing MBR at offset 0.
fdisk: 1> quit
---

Then I tried to create a partition using disklabel:

---
# disklabel -E sd0
# Inside MBR partition 3: type A6 start 4096 size 490227712

Treating sectors 4096-490231808 as the OpenBSD portion of the disk.
You can use the 'b' command to change this.

Initial label editor (enter '?' for help at any prompt)

total bytes: 239371.5M
free bytes: 0.0M
rpm: 3600

16 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg]
a: 239369.5M 2.0M 4.2BSD 2048 16384 16 # Cyl 2
-239371*
c: 239371.5M 0.0M unused 0 0 # Cyl 0
-239371*
> w
disklabel: ioctl DIOCWDINFO: Operation not permitted
disklabel: unable to write label
---

How can I write this partition table to disk?

Best regards,

Dennis
