How can I create partitions? You would go to /dev and use ./MAKEDEV mlxd1 for that. I'm not so sure about the deal below though; mlxd0 shouldn't be showing up like that. I'd _suspect_ that you have a stale configuration component in the system somewhere from a previous setup, but I've only seen the "RAID 7 (offline)" symptom before when things have been so busy that I couldn't track it down. mlx0: <Mylex version 5 RAID interface> port 0x10000-0x1007f mem 0x40000000-0x43ffffff,0x2010000-0x201007f irq 31 at device 8.0 on pci2 mlx0: controller initialisation in progress... mlx0: initialisation complete. mlx0: interrupting at TSUNAMI irq 31 mlx0: DAC1164PVX, 3 channels, firmware 5.07-0-79, 64MB RAM mlxd0: <Mylex System Drive> on mlx0 mlxd0: 8748MB (17915904 sectors) RAID 7 (offline) mlxd1: <Mylex System Drive> on mlx0 mlxd1: 35002MB (71684096 sectors) RAID 5 (online) -- \\ Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. \\ Mike Smith \\ Tell him he should learn how to fish himself, \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ and he'll hate you for a lifetime. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
