Thanks everyone for all the good information.... On 29 Oct, Greg Lehey wrote: > The point here is that Stepen used the -v option for newfs, which > tells newfs to ignore partition information.

I jotted down these notes as I was building the system, but needed to get it back in production and didn't have a lot of time to try different options. I do remember that when I followed the tutorial instructions *exactly*, it failed.. I think that the error message was something about "can't rewrite disk label". I believe that I needed to do the disklabel trick to get the newfs to complete. >>> Finally, the CCD homepage at http://stampede.cs.berkeley.edu/ccd/ >>> seems unavailable.

Perhaps the tutorial should be updated to point folks towards vinum? Thanks, -SR To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
