sysinstall's disk label editor's size field is overflowing when size is greater than 9999MB, which is now a reality. But there are (potentially) free spaces to the left if the Mount field is not filled. Alternatively, start using GB instead of MB. Below is an example of what just happened when I added an 18 GB and 2 9 GB disks: FreeBSD Disklabel Editor Disk: da2 Partition name: da2s1 Free: 0 blocks (0MB) Disk: da3 Partition name: da3s1 Free: 0 blocks (0MB) Disk: da4 Partition name: da4s1 Free: 0 blocks (0MB) Part Mount Size Newfs Part Mount Size Newfs ---- ----- ---- ----- ---- ----- ---- ----- da2s1e /remote/16 17366MBUFS Y da3s1e /remote/17 8682MB UFS Y da4s1e /remote/18 8682MB UFS Y The following commands are valid here (upper or lower case): C = Create D = Delete M = Mount pt. W = Write N = Newfs Opts T = Newfs Toggle U = Undo Q = Finish A = Auto Defaults for all! Use F1 or ? to get more help, arrow keys to select. Fix: Right justify rather than left justify, or use GB rather than MB when value exceeds 9999 MB. How-To-Repeat: Add another 18 GB disk.
