How do people normally add new disks to a FreeBSD system? Given
that /stand/sysinstall causes a kernel panic during the newfs
process, it would seem to me that people are using another method.
When I tried to manually run disklabel I got all sorts of errors
depending on what options I gave to disklabel. From "No space on
device" to "bad magic number". Eventually I found that by just
accepting the panic, when the system rebooted the disklabel was
OK and all I needed to do was newfs the partitions.
BTW the panic that sysinstall causes is "ufs_lock: recusive lock
not expected" or something like that. The system is 2.2.6 stable
cvsupped around 7 days ago.
Cheers.
