I gave up. I can tell you that I tried all sorts of strange things and could not get RAID 1 working reliably on a disk with BSD disklabels.

The only consistent thing was it died somewhere along the line. - Craig -- Craig Small GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.enc.com.au/ MIEE Debian developer csmall at : enc.com.au ieee.org debian.org
