Hello, I'm trying FreeBSD 5.4 on a sparc64 (T1/AC200) ; it's a RELENG_5_4 checkout as of last night, so RC2. After I create a gmirror and make some partitions in it, I'm not seeing any entries for the partitions in /dev/mirror, so I can't do anything with them. Here's results from sunlabel for the mirror (gm0) and it's one underlying provider, da4: t1# sunlabel mirror/gm0 # /dev/mirror/gm0: text: SUN9.0G cyl 4924 alt 2 hd 27 sec 133 bytes/sectors: 512 sectors/cylinder: 3591 sectors/unit: 17682084 8 partitions: # # Size is in sectors. # Offset is in cylinders. # size offset tag flag # ---------- ---------- ---------- ---- a: 265734 0 root wu c: 17682084 0 backup wu t1# sunlabel da4 # /dev/da4: text: SUN9.0G cyl 4924 alt 2 hd 27 sec 133 bytes/sectors: 512 sectors/cylinder: 3591 sectors/unit: 17682084 8 partitions: # # Size is in sectors. # Offset is in cylinders. # size offset tag flag # ---------- ---------- ---------- ---- a: 265734 0 root wu c: 17682084 0 backup wu t1# ls /dev/mirror gm0 t1# ls /dev/da4* /dev/da4 But if I remove the mirror the partitions appear in da4: t1# gmirror remove gm0 da4 t1# ls /dev/da4* /dev/da4 /dev/da4a /dev/da4c I found a reference to this also asked previously over in freebsd-sparc64: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-sparc64/2005-March/002834.html But there was no response. Is this a known problem or something we both did wrong? Cheers, -- Chris
