hope this is the right list...

I have a "FreeBSD 6.1-PRERELEASE #0: Tue Mar 21 13:29:33 CET 2006" system
with an Areca Raid6 controller (12 x 400GB) which presents a 4TB disk (da0)
to the system:

da0 at arcmsr0 bus 0 target 7 lun 0
da0: <Areca ARC-1130-VOL#00 R001> Fixed Direct Access SCSI-3 device 
da0: 166.666MB/s transfers (83.333MHz, offset 32, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled
da0: 3814695MB (7812495360 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 486305C)

when I newfs and label do work when I install the OS. however, after booting the
system from an usb-stick (da1) and change root-fs to da0 I miss 2TB of storage.
At least I can't tellif it's there or not. "/usr" should be 3.6TB and shows
this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Filesystem     Size    Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/da0s1a    989M     55M    855M     6%    /
devfs          1.0K    1.0K      0B   100%    /dev
/dev/da0s1e    1.9G     26K    1.8G     0%    /tmp
/dev/da0s1f    1.6T    1.6G    1.4T     0%    /usr
/dev/da0s1d    9.7G     27M    8.9G     0%    /var
devfs          1.0K    1.0K      0B   100%    /var/named/dev


The label editor from sysinstall shows this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disk: da0       Partition name: da0s1   Free: 0 blocks (0MB)

Part      Mount          Size Newfs   Part      Mount          Size Newfs

da0s1a    /            1024MB UFS2   N
da0s1b    swap         2048MB SWAP
da0s1d    /var        10240MB UFS2+S N
da0s1e    /tmp         2048MB UFS2+S N
da0s1f    /usr         1662GB UFS2+S N


Output from sysinstall/FDISK:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disk name:      da0                                    FDISK Partition Editor

        63 3517522466 3517522528    da0s1      8    freebsd      165

So, my question is, how big is my "/usr" slice? 1.6TB or 3.6TB?

Thanks,
Lutz Rabing
