Our issue is: after creating 3, RAID 1 virtual disk groups and initializing them we successfully install FreeBSD 6.1 on the first raid group. We then create a file system on the second raid group which seems to wipe out the FreeBSD install on the first disk group.=20 It seems as though FreeBSD6.1 is not differentiating between the different disk groups thus when you make changes to 1 group it will write the changes to the other. Anyone have any ideas on how to get FreeBSD6.1 to differentiate between the different virtual disk groups on a Dell 2950? Thanks Mark.
