Hi there, I think I might have found a mistake in the handbook - first off this is the first time I try to setup geom, so there is a good chance that I might miss something :) I was following instructions on this page: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/geom-mirror.html About half-way down it says: "Now edit the replicated /mnt/etc/fstab file and remove or comment out the swap file [1]. Change the other file system information to use the new disk as shown in the following example:" A little later you should reboot into single user mode and "At the console, ensure that the system booted from the gm0s1a." But I doubt that will ever happen - the handbook only tells me to change /mnt/etc/fstab (which is the secondary disk) so when booting, it will still use /etc/fstab (which hasn't changed). After I changed /etc/fstab as well - everything worked fine :) -- Med venlig hilsen / Best regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Cordialement / Szívélyes Üdvözlettel / مع وافر الإحترام والتقدير Lasse Brandt http://www.bitmand.net/help
