I'd like to hear the problems you had. Mmmm - as I can see even /dev/vinum/rvol/volname works now. Don't know exactly what happened last time. Only dumping with an fstabentry pointing to /dev/vinum/vol/volname won't work when dumping with a mount-point given. Guess that's why solaris has an entry for character and block device in /etc/vfstab. > > Greg > -- > See complete headers for address, home page and phone numbers > finger grog@lemis.com for PGP public key > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message -- B.Walter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
