I've never used vinum before, but I found a good guide for what I want to do here (Case 2): http://org.netbase.org/vinum-mirrored.html Anyway, I have come to the point where I have to label my disks and I am getting the following: First try: # disklabel -e /dev/ad0s1e disklabel: Device busy Second try (completely empty disk): # disklabel -e /dev/ad2s1f disklabel: Device busy Then I tried 'disklabel -e -r' for each of these and still: Device busy. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks, -Jason To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
