Not shure whether this is the right place to ask, but I haven't found other sources of information. I deployed a beta3-nfs-server which works fine. Two IDE-to-SCSI-cabinets are connected to the server using an aic7899-controller. The first cabinet has approx. 2 TB (12 disks at 200 GB, as expected). When I connected the second cabinet using 250 GB disks, I exptected approx. 2.5 TB, but only saw 764 GB. Is there any limit that is imposed by 5.x in terms of max. partition size? This is running on a Compaq DL 380 dual PIII (G2) with 3 GB RAM, microstorage cabinet. The raid-system became visible by the usual 'camcontrol rescan all' and I used 'fdisk -I /dev/da2' and 'disklabel -w /dev/da2s1'. Claus Yahoo!
