>Description:
I have a disk component on an mfii controller which is half of a
previous raid0 instance. As such it has an invalig GPT which
represents a disk twice its size
Unfortunately I cannot destroy the gpt:
# gpt -v destroy sd3
/dev/rsd3: mediasize=8000987201536; sectorsize=512; blocks=15626928128
gpt: /dev/rsd3: map entry doesn't fit media: new start + new size < start + size
(22 + 3a36fffde < 800 + 746dff000)
Resize disk suffers similarly
>How-To-Repeat:
Boot with an invalid GPT which describes a larger disk and then
try to destroy it to create a valid GPT

Can you try the following patch?
(For a bunch of reasons I'm not in a position to actually test this
right now, but I think it should work).
It applies (to HEAD) in src/sbin/gpt
kre
ps: the spaces in the #define of GPT_OPTDEV in gpt.h should be changed to
a tab, but that has nothing to do with this issue.
