I was able to create the ar0 device while loading the OS but cannot boot off the resulting load (the image is mirrored on both drives). The ar0 device does not appear in the kernel messages. The error I get is: Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ar0s1a setrootbyname failed ffs_mountroot: can't find rootvp Root mount failed: 6 Any advice on how to make the system load? --geeb -- Mark A Gebert ThugsRUs Networks
