Thanks for the responce.

Till now i am having separate root  and swap partitions in each of my
two disks,
and all my other stuff lives in a vinum mirrored volume. This way i am
fairly protected
against crashes, but this setup is complicated and difficult to
maintain.
(If the disk that has the active root partition crashes i must reboot.
If the
other one chrashes the system continues whitout problem (SCSI disks))

Is there is any chance that vinum-related options in the loader.conf
(vinum_load ="YES")
can help me to boot from a vimum volume, or this is completely
irrelevant?
