Hi,

     Has anyone gotten vinum to work using the 5.0RC2 ISO distribution?
I've tried creating a raid5, a "raid10", and (finally) a basic,
one-drive volume, and newfs fails for all cases, with:

	# newfs -U /dev/vinum/myvol
	newfs: /dev/vinum/myvol: can't figure out file system partition

I've attached a typescript file (w/added comments) illustrating the
problem for the basic, one-drive case.

     Is vinum broken in 5.0RC2, or am I doing something spectacularly
stupid?
