The patch is applied like this: # cd /usr/src && patch < /path/to/patch Remember to not have the old gvinum module running. Then install the module: # cd /usr/src/sys/modules/geom/geom_vinum && make && make install clean Then install userland gvinum # cd /usr/src/sbin/gvinum && make && make install clean And you should be ready to go. The updated manpage in /usr/src/sbin/gvinum/gvinum.8 describes how growing is done. Just gzip it and put it in /usr/share/man/man8 to use it. -- Ulf Lilleengen
