Did I miss any steps in installing > softupdates? mount on my CURRENT box yields: [asmodai@daemon] (1) $ mount /dev/da0s1a on / (local, writes: sync 6 async 361) /dev/da0s1f on /tmp (local, soft-updates, writes: sync 60 async 467) /dev/da0s1g on /usr (local, soft-updates, writes: sync 8 async 2538) /dev/da0s1e on /var (local, soft-updates, writes: sync 1371 async 2804) /dev/da2s1e on /development (local, soft-updates, writes: sync 2 async 0) /dev/da2s2e on /work (local, soft-updates, writes: sync 2 async 1) procfs on /proc (local) So either this is new functionality for mount or your softupdates isn't working [which I doubt]. Ye used tunefs -n enable on the slices? If so, and the messages appear on vty0 (like ye said IIRC), then yer in business... Just look for more async writes in mount output ;) -- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven asmodai(at)wxs.nl The BSD Programmer's Documentation Project Network/Security Specialist BSD: Technical excellence at its best Cum angelis et pueris, fideles inveniamur.
