Hi, with a fresh kernel and world from last night I get: dopt# boot0cfg -s 3 ad4 boot0cfg: /dev/ad4: ad4 boot0cfg: /dev/ad4: ioctl DIOCSMBR: Inappropriate ioctl for device is this GEOM_PART_* fallout and can it be fixed? I am wondering how to change it from a rnning system now, as dopt# gpart set -a active -i 3 ad4 gpart: pre-check failed: Device not configured I guess this may help you to see if what I am doing is correct: dopt# gpart show ad4 => 63 390721905 ad4 MBR (186G) 63 256977 1 !6 (125M) 257040 83875365 2 freebsd [active] (40G) 84132405 83875365 3 freebsd (40G) 168007770 222709095 4 freebsd (106G) 390716865 5103 - free - (2.5M) Oh, and how does one set the boot0cfg -s 5 (next disk) now? /bz -- Bjoern A. Zeeb The greatest risk is not taking one.
