Is it still not possible to boot from raidframe on GPT?
Booting from a GPT partition within a RAID within a GPT is not currently
supported. The best workaround would be to put your root in a
unpartitioned/disklabel-partitioned raid device.
Hmmm... So I created a standard ffs wedge for the kernel and a rescue copy
of the OS, but I can't force root on the raidframe volume. The volume
configures automatically, another wedge is seen, but the kernel can't use
it as root. Plus, it seem amd64 still can't handle a USB keyboard in
single user mode (at least not on any of my hardware).
I suppose I'll just have to remove the wedges in the raidframe volume,
then newfs with a manual sector count.
It's hard to imagine that I'm the only person who wants to use a raidframe
volume as the root filesystem on a volume larger than 2 TB...
