Take me for example an the guy who posted under the subject "gvinum - recovering from stale in multi user mode" before. Maybe one of you could lead us to some articles, that describe the changes in a little detail. My problem is the following: As I upgrade from 5.2.1 to 5.3 I have the following setup: vinum conf: drive a device /dev/ad0s1e drive b device /dev/ad1s1d drive c device /dev/ad2s1d volume myvolume sd length 213253346K drive a sd length 324525235K drive b sd length 432123523K drive c rc.conf: start_vinum="YES" fstab: ... /dev/vinum/myvolume /usr .... This setup works just fine with 5.2.1. I know the need to change the following to use gvinum with 5.3 : instead of rc.conf (start_vinum="YES") /boot/loader.conf geom_vinum_load="YES" and change the fstab accordingly: /dev/gvinum/myvolume The result I at boot time is a screen continuously printing out: GEOM_VINUM: plex request failed for gvinum/plex/myvolume.p Does anybody know where to start from here? Many thanks in advance
