Yes, I'm even setting geom_mirror_load to "YES" before setting geom_journal_load to "YES" (although I doubt the order of these settings in loader.conf makes any difference). If the kldstat Id numbers are assigned sequentially, it looks as if geom_journal got loaded first and this may somehow be related (although I don't entirely see how -- absent geom_mirror to make gm0 and its partitions visible, I'd think that geom_journal "should not" be able to find its metadata at all). _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
