Don't know why it didn't work from first boot or why it wouldn't start manually after, but its working now. Added "geom_vinum_load=YES" to /boot/loader.conf. Rebooted. And now things work as they did before. The difference is that gvinum now sees the drives more completely. Previously listed "0 drives:" but got the volume, plex and subdisks correct. # gvinum list 2 drives: D vinumdrive1 State: up /dev/ad6s1d A: 0/156041 MB (0%) D vinumdrive0 State: up /dev/ad4s1d A: 0/156041 MB (0%) 1 volume: V vinum0 State: up Plexes: 1 Size: 304 GB 1 plex: P vinum0.p0 S State: up Subdisks: 2 Size: 304 GB 2 subdisks: S vinum0.p0.s0 State: up D: vinumdrive0 Size: 152 GB S vinum0.p0.s1 State: up D: vinumdrive1 Size: 152 GB -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@HiWAAY.net ======================================================================== Whom computers would destroy, they must first drive mad.
