It's during boot, and found in dmesg.boot. I wouldn't care so much, except I was unable to boot into the system until I performed a gpart modify -i <N> -l <SLICE-LABEL> on all the slices, and modify fstab(5) accordingly. Kind of a rough start for an install IMHO. :) Thanks again, for the reply, Alan! --Chrishome | help
