I dump to da0s1b, it's 96M big. It's got a companion da1b (not sliced) that's the same size on the second disk. > > Sorry if you've covered this all before - the regular fixit crewe seem to have > disappeared for the night ;-) - So I'll have to do <g> Appreciate the help, I don't know what I might be doing wrong. /etc/rc keeps on telling me the same thing I get when I go into single user with now (now preciously hoarded) good kernel single-user and try to save the kernel dump --- no kernel dump.
