It would be nice to use 5.2 (and eventually 5.3 with the new threading) however, and I am curious as to what changed between 4 and 5 that is preventing 5 from properly recognizing this particular setup. Enabling boot logging reveals the following: DEBUG: deviceTry: attempting to open /dev/da0 DEBUG: deviceTry: open of /dev/da0 succeeded on first try DEBUG: deviceTry: attempting to open /dev/da1 DEBUG: deviceTry: making raw device for /dev/da1 [13,65546] DEBUG: deviceTry: final attempt for /mnt/dev/da1 returns -1 This occurs with 5.2.1-RC install CD as well Sven
