Thanks! Still.. I am so curious why there is no mention of it anyplace in /boot/defaults/ nor in gjournal's man page. Why is the way to actually turn on / really use gjournal being so obfuscated? Why isn't it a rc.conf entry like zfs or at least mentioned some place? Journaling is to big(todays) disks what SMP is to multi core cpu's. SMP is now standard. Why isn't journaling? Nicole
