I was afraid of that. What's the recommendation for how to Set up a 2-disk system with mirroring then? All the HOWTO's I've seen have the entire disk mirrored, including all the pieces. My current setup is 3 BSD partitions in 1 FDISK slice. With the entire disk (da0/da1) mirrored. How can I set it up to allow dumps? (I wouldn't mind having double the swap :) ) LER >> >> My FreeBSD/amd64 6.0-STABLE as of today doesn't seem to want to do >> it. > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable > To unsubscribe, send any mail to > "freebsd-stable-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -- Larry Rosenman http://www.lerctr.org/~ler Phone: +1 512-248-2683 E-Mail: ler@lerctr.org US Mail: 430 Valona Loop, Round Rock, TX 78681-3683 US
