   Hello.
   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
