      Doesn’t look like glabel is available on NetBSD

      Is there some alternative command for labels on NetBSD?

        gpt show sd0 and gpt show -l sd0 will show partition labels (if using GPT)

        Could also use dkctl sd0 listwedges to show wedge names…

        I’ll have a little play and see what might work best

          I would love to sit down on this and just port it to NetBSD … but this month time is my ‘valuable’ thing - and I need to provide some things that I need to do for a living - please try and share what you found to work - I would really like to make lsblk(8) also work on NetBSD - as if FreeBSD would not exist - the NetBSD UNIX is the system I would be using instead :)

            Yeah, I looked deeper into it and there’s just too many differences between each system to make a completely portable *BSD script. Well, is out of scope for my skills at least.

            I whipped up a quick and dirty script that sort of emulates lsblk on NetBSD…

            Not my finest, but it works on my machine

            NetBSD-lsblk.sh

              Thanks - I tried it under NetBSD in FreeBSD Bhyve VM - but no luck for me:

              netbsd# uname -prsm
NetBSD 10.1 amd64 x86_64

netbsd# ./lsblk.NetBSD
