hi there,
 i am trying to configure my hard disk (IDE device)for
vinum support. i am using 4.5 FreeBSD with the GENERIC
kernel. when i do "disklabel -e /dev/ad0" using vi
editor, it shows me the unused partition but when i
try to change the type to 'vinum' ,it warns me that
"disklabel: Operation not supported by device " and
asks to re-edit the label and again the same error
occurs. i am not able to figure out what is wrong. do
i need to patch up the kernel with vinum support or
load more packages for that. 
 thanks.
 rit.
