It seems to consider only the first slice (PC-partition) of the root spindle. I have put all vinum related files here http://65.189.239.65/vinum_files/ I have two (1 when you consider vinum) 120G dsks that need to be split onto more than 12 fs's. I created two PC-partitions 60G each to get over the a to h partition limit. I also have a different kind of problem. I was trying to find out how to modify bootvinum script to skip certain partitions when it processes /etc/fstab to create /etc/fstab.vinum I have two disks, and I want certain "critical" partitions mirrored on both, but I want each disk to have its own partitions made out of remaining space in each. I realise this may a little too much for the bootvinum perl script, but I just wanted to find out before I modify anything or try the manual approach. -- Hari Bhaskaran To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
