I think the guide you linked to: http://blather.michaelwlucas.com/archives/1071 meant that you have to be in single user mode until you have edited /etc/fstab to point to the mirror, otherwise you wouldn't boot with root on the mirror. The synchronization between the disks works fine in multi-user mode as well. I have two 2 TiB disks in gmirror set up just like that. Synchronization was done running in multi-user. -- http://hack.org/mc/ Warning! Plain text e-mail, please. HTML e-mail deleted unread. OpenPGP: 673B 563E 3C78 1BA0 6525 2344 B22E 2C10 E4C9 2FA5
