For sake of > completeness heres the dmesg: [more snippage] Yet another follow up on my own post... Update Redoux: 1) Using the amr driver from 7-CURRENT yields same results. 2) Did some testing playing musical hard drive slots. IF I do NOT use slot 1 (# on Tyan Backplane starts w/1) and use the EXACT same raid config for the mirror usings, e.g. slots 2 & 3, then all works as normally expected. So it would seem that Tyan and/or LSI have something Foobarred? Or that for some reason FBSD is overwriting directly to disk on slot 1 (i.e. da0) even though it's not technically there? Bizarre hardware issues. My raison d'etre... -- Best regards, Ken Gunderson Q: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. A: Why is putting a reply at the top of the message frowned upon?
