Once upon a time, I partitioned two disks identically and then added them to a mirror. It was good. Then I upgraded to 8.2-RELEASE and now I can't boot. Well, I did a little recovery work and I am currently booting without the gmirror so I am satisfied that my data is safe. Having read a few messages it sounds like there are some steps I need to take to fix up my partitioning scheme to make things work right in 8.2-RELEASE. But since gotchas got me once, what are the gotchas? Should I partition before adding a disk to a mirror? Unfortunately, one of the messages that I read said, "There's no fix as yet." so I am quite leary of proceeding without a little help from my friends. Thanks, Jason C. Wells
