    Hello, I'm trying to create a new encrypted partition but something goes wrong:

    % ocutil create -verbose -fat -overwrite /dev/disk3s1
    create: info: seizing device disk3s1 via DiskArbitration
    create: new volume password:
    create: verify new volume password:
    create: error: failed settings block count on '/dev/disk3s1': Cannot change the number of blocks of a block device
    create: info: unseizing device disk3s1 via DiskArbitration

    Running osx 10.5.2; this is the partition scheme:

    % fdisk /dev/disk3
    Disk: /dev/disk3 geometry: 48641/255/63 [781422768 sectors]
    Signature: 0xAA55
    Starting Ending
