But I'm still unsure of the bsdlabel step when configuring gmirror. I know partition a is supposed to be offset 16 instead of 0. When I change it, I get this message: partitions a and b overlap! If I bump up b's offset by 16, that message goes away, but I still have this one: bsdlabel: partition c doesn't cover the whole unit! I get the same message if I bump up all the offsets (except c) by 16. Should I: 1. just bump a's offset up by 16 and ignore error messages? 2. bump a and b's offsets up by 16 and assume error message on c is due to sysinstall bug and can be ignored? 3. bump up all the offsets by 16 (except for c which shouldn't be touched) and ignore error message about c Dru
