More importantly, before I reinstall fresh the whole thing, I need to save some data from the /usr partition. I plugged a third disk in the system and installed on it a vanilla FreeBSD 5.2.1 kern-developer distribution. I created the config file for the raid device, but whenever I try to create the raid device by using 'raidctl -C /etc/raid0.conf' the system reboots with: "Kernelized RAIDframe activated" "RAIDFrame: protectedSectors is 64" "Waiting for DAG engine to start" "Panic: lockmgr: thread ... 'snip'" Any ideas of what is wrong? This is brand new fresh install. Thanks, Leo The config file and disklabels I used are follows: START array 1 2 0 START disks /dev/ad1s1e /dev/ad2s1e START layout 64 1 1 1 START queue fifo 100 # /dev/ad1s1: type: ESDI disk: ad1s1 label: flags: bytes/sector: 512 sectors/track: 63 tracks/cylinder: 16 sectors/cylinder: 1008 cylinders: 1657 sectors/unit: 1670697 rpm: 3600 interleave: 1 trackskew: 0 cylinderskew: 0 headswitch: 0 # milliseconds track-to-track seek: 0 # milliseconds drivedata: 0 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 491520 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 b: 262144 491520 swap c: 1670697 0 unused 0 0 # "raw" part, don't edit e: 917033 753664 raid _________________________________________________________________ Is your PC infected?
