The create goes through fine but when I do a newfs -v I get an in input/output error which is a sympton that I haven't initiallised the plexes. What is the correct syntax for the init command if I try init -w develop.s0.p0 I get the following error vinum[519]: initiallising subdisk /dev/vinum/sd/develop.p0.s0 can't initialize /dev/vinum/sd/develop.p0.so: device busy (16) and get booted out of the vinum program. I'm running 4.2-Stable on Epox socket A motherboard with Thunderbird 900. The harddisks are all scsi attached to the a Tekram 390F controller.
