8.1 Pre-release gpart, isn't setting type correctly
Phil
usb memory stick doesn't correctly store the gpart type information.

If I reboot the machine, only the /dev/da1 devices is recognised, there is
no /dev/da1p1. Also "gpart modify -i 1 -t freebsd-ufs da1" did not have
any effect on the "gpart list"
We have a similar outcome when using the HDD,

Hardware: Used two different motherboards: Gigabyte (without ahci available)
and
VIA SN1800 (with ahci available and enabled); two hard disks (WD500AAKS)and
one
usb memory stick.
Initially I thought it was the ahci timeouts, but using different
motherboards,
and a usb drive disproved that association.
If there is anything that I can do, or provide to help resolve this, I'm
happy
to do so.

This is probably the same issue reported at
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern%2F142174 and already
fixed on CURRENT. I guess the fix will be merged to 8.X soon.
