Hi, I followed http://people.freebsd.org/~rse/mirror/ to create a software RAID mirror. I have two 75G drives in the machine. I allocated 74G to the filesystem on each drive and 1 G to swap. When I blanked ad1 and created ad1s1, I didn't notice that it had taken up the whole of the drive. Can I shrink the mirror partition and have two swap partitions, or if that is not possible, how would I go about creating a "mirrored" swap partition?
