Subject:   newfs hangs system when doing "newfs /dev/rccd0c"

Hello..

The ccd consists of almost 4 x 10 gb Maxtor IDE HDD's (the first one has
some space allocated for swap and root partition, the rest is for ccd).

I have configured wd1, wd2 and wd3 to be totally dedicated to FreeBSD (one
big slice), and wd0 has the extra left over partition used for ccd. All
four have been configured with disklabel.

Then I put all four in the same ccd (ccd0) in /etc/ccd.config, with 0
interleave and 'none' flags. The system I'm running is a 2.2.7-STABLE.

When I try to do what the below cut shows, the system hangs! It's possible
to connect on open ports for example, but the daemons that should answer
don't answer.. And it's possible to ping the machine, so it seems not to
be totally freezed up...!

What could I be doing wrong?
Is there a upper limit for how big a ccd canbe?
I'm very thankful for help!

****************************************************************************

I've been trying to newfs a ccd-device twice now, on this *remote*
machine, always resulting in hanging the system. Since it's a remote
system I'm trying to be careful since each time the machine hangs someone
needs to drive down there and reset the machine :(.

Best Regards, Markus.
