That seemed to work like a charm! thanks a bunch. However, now I'm running into problem 2 :) Every howto for vinum wants you to run disklabel to setup partitions. However on Sparc64 this doesn't seem to work and the workaround is to run sysinstall->custom->label I can go in here and create the partitions for the 3 drives I'm working on. When I create the partitions, it wants a mount point. The 3 drives are going to be in a raid5 array, so I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be doing here. I tried not setting a mountpoint, but when you do that it errors trying to write. I created a conf file that looks like this: drive d1 device /dev/da0d drive d2 device /dev/da1d drive d3 device /dev/da2d volume raid plex org raid5 512k sd length 34985m drive d1 sd length 34985m drive d2 sd length 34985m drive d3 After running vinum create -v vinum.conf, it seems to go through but nothing really happens. Can you point me in the right direction on this one? I've read through the manpages but can't come up with an answer, and I've been messing with this for about a week now with no success. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
