I have a couple of servers I want to put back to back on HAST with ZFS. However, I am stuck at how the best way to do this at install time. Normally, when you choose ZFS at install time, it uses the entire disk by creating the boot partition(p0), swap(p1) and freebsd-zfs (p3). I want to be able to control the size of partition 3 so that its NOT the entire disk, so that I leave enough space on the disk to later create a second ZFS pool that I can then configure HAST for. What is the best way to do this ? ---Mike -- ------------------- Mike Tancsa, tel +1 519 651 3400 Sentex Communications, mike@sentex.net Providing Internet services since 1994 www.sentex.net Cambridge, Ontario Canada http://www.tancsa.com/
