Amongst the flurry of commits from the l2k15 hackathon, Ken Westerback (krw@) has been hacking away on GPT support, and it's now enabled in the GENERIC kernel.



CVSROOT: /cvs Module name: src Changes by: krw@cvs.openbsd.org 2015/09/10 10:30:23 Modified files: sys/arch/amd64/conf: GENERIC sys/arch/i386/conf: GENERIC sys/conf : files sys/kern : subr_disk.c sys/sys : disklabel.h Log message: Now that the GPT code tries really hard not to get in the way and accidentally capture disks ... Eliminate kernel option GPT and associated #ifdef GPT/#endif. Let everybody get on the GPT bandwagon and we'll see what wheels fly off. Requested by & ok deraadt@

This comes after many recent GPT-related fixes hitting the tree. If you've got disks over 2TB in size, now is the time to start testing.
