Re: aliasing (or renaming) kern.geom.debugflags

Hello, Poul-Henning.

  So, every other GEOM class should have special knowledge about GPT?
It doesn't look like "topology-agnostic" GEOM way :)

  Now it is possible to make gmirror inside GPT partition by hands, of
course. but if here is multiple partitions it will lead to multiple
instances of gmirror, and, in case of synchronization, it will thrash
disk, as all instances will try to read and write from different areas
of disks (partiitons) in same time...

  I don't see good universal solution for this, unfortunately :(
