Section 12.9.2 of the FreeBSD Handbook states the following: ... I need to add a new "e" partition for ccd(4) to use. This can be a copy of the "c" partition. Once I was done, my disklabel should look like this: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] c: 60074784 0 unused 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 59597) e: 60074784 0 unused 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 59597) ... This is incorrect. The filesystem type for 'e' is not 4.2BSD; the ccdconfig(8) applied later will fail. It should state: c: 60074784 0 unused 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 59597) e: 60074784 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 59597) Section 12.9.3 states the following: ... The final arguments to ccdconfig are the devices to place into the array. Putting it all together I get this command: ccdconfig ccd0 32 0 /dev/ad1c /dev/ad2c /dev/ad3c ... This is also incorrect. The label entries used should not be type 'c', but rather type 'e' (hence the instructions in 12.9.2!). This should therefore be: ccdconfig ccd0 32 0 /dev/ad1e /dev/ad2e /dev/ad3e Thanks. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc@parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
