This is below the fs layer, this is _virtual_ disk type devices. You end up with /dev/cdX under 4.4 lite (sic, conflicts with scsi cdrom driver on many platforms :-(). On an Auspex it is /dev/vdX or is that /dev/vnX, been a few months, unionfs can not do what this does, and that is scatter blocks accross partitions (yes, you can stripe to one disk, though that makes a very slow disk, it makes it cheap to work on the code.) -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation Company Reliable computers for FreeBSD
