Here's an odd one. I inherited an RZ28-VA, and I can't rewrite the
partition table. disklabel says the partition is in use, even when
it's clearly impossible.
a: 1012095 32130 resrvd8 (Cyl. 2 - 64)
b: 562275 1044225 resrvd8 (Cyl. 65 - 99)
c: 2490075 1606500 resrvd8 (Cyl. 100 - 254)
Four different errors: partition open/in use; partition doesn't
start at block 0; disklabel could not be updated; partition in
use, can't modify. (Approximations; I can't copy the exact text
to this screen easily.)
disklabel -z rz2
not block 0
disklabel -e rz2 # to move 'a' to start at block 0
in use, can't modify
disklabel -sF rz2a unused
could not be updated
disklabel -wrn rz2 RZ28
partition open/in use
Any ideas? I didn't see anything in the archives, but I might have
missed it..
