I am having a problem with a fresh install onto a = raid5 file system that is 9TB in size. during the initial install, the syste= m shows the correct disk size and partition sizes, but after it has complete= d and rebooted it shows the the large partition as only 1TB. I am using a 3w= are raid controller and even when I look at the boot message, it shows that = the entire drive is of the correct size. On initial install, this is= how I have setup the drive. Total disk size: Sep 4 12:17:51 fi= leserv kernel: da0: 9536640MB (19531038720 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 1215= 750C) 1G da0s1a /&nbs= p; UFS 4G da0s1b &nb= sp; swap 2G da0s1d = /var UFS2+S 36G da0s1e &n= bsp; /usr UFS2+S remainder da0s1f &nbs= p; /big UFS2+S Upon completion of insta= ll and a reboot, The drive partitions show up as this: Filesystem&nbs= p; 1K-blocks Used Avai= l Capacity Mounted on /dev/da0s1a 1012974 2= 72248 659690 29% = / devfs = ; 1 1 = ; 0 100% &n= bsp; /dev /dev/da0s1f 1094909108 4 10= 07316376 0% /big /dev/da0s1e&nb= sp; 36558732 1486022 32148012 4%&n= bsp; /usr /dev/da0s1d 2026030 &n= bsp; 550 1863398 0% &nb= sp; /var It was my understanding that UFS2 supports drive s= izes well above what I am trying to use. Is there something that I am doing = wrong? Thanks, -Troy
