Same symptom, but DIOCGMEDIASIZE is not the solution in this case because the port reads the disklabel to identify the partition that contains a particular sector of the device. To do that, AFAIK it needs to actually retrieve and examine the label. The other ioctls in <sys/disk.h> don't look all that promising, either.Received on Mon Jan 26 2015 - 05:13:06 UTC
