In case you are foolishly tracking -current without reading the CVS logs, you might want to be aware that the default just changed such that you get GEOM unless you explicitly specify NO_GEOM in your kernel configuration file. The pre-defined kernel configs in the base tree all specify NO_GEOM, so if you're just tracking GENERIC, you'll get the same non-GEOM behavior you had before. If you're using a custom kernel config and don't want GEOM, you'll need to add NO_GEOM. Since GEOM will be the default for 5.0-RELEASE, it's advisable to run with GEOM now so you find the problems sooner rather than later. :-) Robert N M Watson FreeBSD Core Team, TrustedBSD Projects robert@fledge.watson.org Network Associates Laboratories To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
