/dev/gvinum missing, ideas please. .

[Troy Kocher]

I am rebuilding a 6.2 box and want to use growfs to expand the jailed filesystems as needed.

I'm doing something wrong b/c /dev/gvinum isn't being created. . help. .

Here is what I've done..

Modified the partition I want to use for gvinum. .

bsd# bsdlabel -e /dev/da0s1

# /dev/da0s1:
8 partitions:
#        size   offset    fstype   [fsize bsize bps/cpg]
  a:  1048576        0    4.2BSD     2048 16384     8
  b:  8388608  1048576      swap

dit
  d:  8884224  9437184    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28552
  e:  1048576 18321408    4.2BSD     2048 16384     8
  f: 10485760 19369984    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28552
  g: 2550873988 29855744     vinum


bsd# gvinum
gvinum -> l
1 drive:


1 volume:


1 plex:


0 subdisks:

bsd# newfs -L outward -O 2 -U -o time /dev/gvinum/outward
newfs: /dev/gvinum/outward: could not find special device

There is no /dev/gvinum..

Ideas??
