FreeBSD aislap 5.3-BETA4 FreeBSD 5.3-BETA4 #0: Tue Sep 14 14:48:06 EEST 2004 lidow@eth4.at.home:/usr/obj/home/src.curr/sys/hp i386
>Description:
I have two mirrored disks set up to bootstrapping vinum. Worked perfect with 5.2-Current ("FreeBSD perko 5.2-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.2-CURRENT #0: Tue Jul 27 18:44:41 GMT 2004 root@perko:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/perko i386"), but when I upgraded to 5.3 BETA4, vinum couldn't find the second disks (ad2) at a boot time with vinum.autostart="YES" and vinum_load="YES" enviroment variables set in loader.conf. If I unset vinum.autostart and start vinum afterwards ... works fine. Even tried to upgrade to Freebsd 6-Currnet, the problem there is bigger. Didn't start vinum at all. Again starting manually afterwards worked.
>How-To-Repeat:
Create two mirrored disk following the instructions from The Handbook, chapter "17.9 Using Vinum for the Root Filesystem"
my vinum create file:
drive mitko device /dev/ad0h
drive petko device /dev/ad2h
volume root
plex org concat
sd length 150m drive mitko
plex org concat
sd length 150m drive petko
volume var
plex org concat
sd length 150m drive mitko
plex org concat
sd length 150m drive petko
volume usr
plex org concat
sd length 1200m drive mitko
plex org concat
sd length 1200m drive petko
lables of ad0 and ad2:
