With this, either name should work. This is puzzling. Quite honestly, I don't understand where the problem could be. Try 'config -f file' instead of 'config file' and see if that works. If not, try: # ktrace -i vinum create file # kdump > foo Then send me the contents of the file foo. We should probably take this offline: it's getting big. Also, I'll be travelling this weekend, so it could take a few days for me to reply.
