Hello,

I am running OpenBSD 3.5 on sparc64 architecture and got the following
error messages when displaying my disk partition:

disklabel: partition c: partition extends past end of unit
disklabel: partition e: partition extends past end of unit
disklabel: partition f: offset past end of unit
disklabel: partition f: partition extends past end of unit

What's the problem here ? I didn't get any such of these error messages
when partitioning at the installation of OpenBSD and now I get those
error messages... Very strange...

Thanks for the help
Regards
