I am following http://www.wonkity.com/~wblock/docs/html/gmirror.html pretty closely in my setup, with a bit of http://www.ateamsystems.com/tech-blog/installing-freebsd-9-gmirror-gpt-partitions-raid-1/ mixed in (-a 1m, mostly). I am still having issues (I am using both gmirrors & gstripes, might be an issue), but am plugging away on it, may have a few more questions in a bit :-/ .... -- William A.
