Normally, the gmirrors are started by gmirror load In case this wasn't clear: There are two gmirrors on the drives and on top of these are two encrypted providers (so basicly, the mirrors are encrypted). Neither are needed at boot time! Here is my fstab: # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# /dev/da0b none swap sw 0 0 /dev/da0a / ufs rw,sync 1 1 /dev/da0h /tmp ufs rw,async 2 2 /dev/da1f /usr ufs rw 2 2 /dev/da0f /usr/obj ufs rw,async 2 2 /dev/da0g /var ufs rw 2 2 /dev/cd0 /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0 The mirrors *are* on these two physical drives but only contain data (as in blueprints, letters, project photos, contracts etc.). So basicly, the mirrors and geli aren't needed for FreeBSD itself but only to access the data stored on the system. And my problem is that FreeBSD won't even boot when I compile geli and crypto into the kernel - although neither are needed at boot time. So either there is a code problem somewhere or I need to change something that I couldn't find documented anywhere so far. Regards Chris
