Greg,
I had some problems using vinum on /dev/twed0 (3ware IDE Raid Controller).
Message similar to:
1: drive drive0 device /dev/twed1s1a
** 1 Can't initialize drive drive0: Operation not supported by device
I found one corresponding message at
http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/159/2001/10/50/6949487/
and would just like to ask if you could patch vinumio.c
permanently...
