Reason being: my /var is symlinked to /usr/var and my vinum0 drive is mounted as /usr. Therefore, at boot time, the /usr volume is not available. Okay, I see that you can set the environment variable VINUM_HISTORY to point to the correct location of the file. How do you set an environment variable at boot time? I am assuming that at boot up the vinum module reads VINUM_HISTORY. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
