Thanks to you and Greg - that was the problem.

One interesting thing about your response was that you
are using a vinum vol as your /usr !

How did you do this? Did you install normally, then
tar the file system to a temporary place, then mounted
the vinum vol on /usr?

This is very interesting, as AFAIK, there is no way to
_directly_ install an OS onto a vinum volume?

Regards,

Ivan
