Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG After a serious problem with an array, I've taken the system down to absolutely nothing. Reformated the drives in the array and rebuilt the array. When I go into sysinstall to add the array I get the following error on tty2 from disk label editor DEBUG: MakeDev: Unknown major/minor for dev type - And even after all the rebuild on the drives both individualy and as an array It's still not working. If I do it a second time it errors out but still begins a build of the file system on the array but I can never access the array. I'm at an utter loss for what could be wrong. Would a low level format for the drives be in order? Or am I missing something here?
