That leads me to a few ccd questions. I hope this isn't a repost. I've been getting my lists now for over two days and haven't seen it show up. 1. Any advice on what to read on ccd. I read man ccd, man ccdconfig, and the diskformat tutorial. They seem to be more for the person who understands what ccd is but doesn't know how to make it happen on FreeBSD. So ... 2. Can you ccd IDE devices, or is it a SCSI thing? 3. Can you do ccdconfig at any time. That is, it seems like something one would want to do early on, perhaps at the beginning of the installation process, and then make file systems on ccd. I'll hit the mailing list archives when the search facility comes back up, but I thought no one would mind if I sought up to date advice while I'm waiting. Thanks. Greg
