Hi all, I had freebsd 6-beta installed, system on a primary disk, data with gvinum on a secondary disk (no raid, concat mode, 1 partition just for testing purpose) and everything running fine. I've reinstalled the primary disk with freebsd 6 stable, erasing all the system partition of 6 beta, and keeping the data disk as-is. (I unplugged it to plug the cdrom drive during installation) I added geon_vinum_load=YES to loader.conf and after rebooting the module was loaded. gvinum list seems to find on my secondary disk the configuration of it. (I didnt "gvinum create" from my conf). The problem is /dev/gvinum and /dev/gvinum/* don't exists. I tried "gvinum create" from the conf it reads (gvinum printconfig) but it fails with something like "can't create, errno 6". which I think is related with the fact that /dev/gvinum* does not exist. What did I miss ? why no /dev/gvinum* ? Thanks in advance. Fred __________________________________________ Yahoo! DSL – Something to write home about. Just $16.99/mo. or less. dsl.yahoo.com
