Hi all, I unfortunately have 2 uneuqally sized SATA disks to set up a mirrored shared folder: 80GB and 120GB. On the 120GB I plan to set up this way: /temp 2GB (double the system memory) /shared 80GB / 38GB I plan to mirror /shared onto the 80GB. It won't be bootable, but I can always mount it onto another FreeBSD machine. I've read some articles on mirroring on non-equal disks, notably: http://people.freebsd.org/~rse/mirror/ My question is: is there an easier way to do this? The example looks quiet daunting for a noobie FreeBSD admin like me. Appreciate any feedback on this. Thanks.
