Xavian...

People are willing to help you, but you need to follow a couple of simple 
etiquette rules...

Writing in all caps is considered yelling.  Write in all caps, people 
ignore you.

Sending 'formatted' or 'html' emails is also a good way to get ignored... 
some people only read plain text.

And doing what appears to be ignoring the advice given to you also make 
people not want to help.  Several people have given you the best advice you 
can have - get "The Complete FreeBSD" if you don't already have it, and 
also visit http://www.vinumvm.org/ to learn more.

Last I heard, and this may be completely wrong now, you had to install 
FreeBSD on a non-vinum'ed disk, and then use vinum on subsequent disks.  If 
this is the case, then all you need to do is do your install, get your 
kernel done, and THEN worry about setting up vinum.  After all, if your 
install gets screwed up, you'll want to know where to start trouble 
shooting it, no?

Seen as how you've really not done anything other than ask the same 
question in different ways, please.... PLEASE step back and try approaching 
this again - AFTER you visit that web site.

And remember... nobody here gets paid a dime.  Everyone helps everyone else 
out of 'the goodness of their hearts', and only when they have time.

Good luck, and I hope you get your questions answered...
