I tried to use one partition of my gmirror disk as journal device for my 3ware raid-5 device which works until I reboot - the journal is then gone as well. Is this patch likly to fix this as well? Will it be included in a future RC? Until now I've stayed away using glabel+gmirror but I didn't knew that gjournal is affected as well so I'm now left with warning that the journal provider is gone wile booting - and more tragically I'm left without journaling at all (which hurts on a 2.7TB partition when the system was not cleanly shut down) -- Oliver Lehmann http://www.pofo.de/ http://wishlist.ans-netz.de/
