I just treated each disc like a hard disc drive: $ sudo fdisk -BI /dev/acd0 $ sudo bsdlabel -Bw /dev/acd0s1 $ sudo glabel label sys_root /dev/acd0s1a $ sudo glabel label sys_vardb /dev/acd0s1d $ sudo glabel label sys_ulocal /dev/acd0s1e $ sudo newfs -O2 -f 1024 -b 8192 /dev/label/sys_root $ sudo newfs -O2 -f 1024 -b 8192 /dev/label/sys_vardb $ sudo newfs -O2 -f 1024 -b 8192 /dev/label/sys_ulocal $ sudo tunefs -a enable /dev/label/sys_root $ sudo tunefs -a enable /dev/label/sys_vardb $ sudo tunefs -a enable /dev/label/sys_ulocal $ sudo mount -t ufs /dev/label/sys_root /mnt $ sudo mkdir -p /mnt/var/db $ sudo mount -t ufs /dev/label/sys_vardb /mnt/var/db $ sudo mkdir -p /mnt/usr/local $ sudo mount -t ufs /dev/label/sys_ulocal /mnt/usr/local $ cd /usr/src $ su nobody $ env -i make installworld installkernel DESTDIR=/mnt $ exit $ su # echo "/ /usr/label/sys_root ufs ro 1 1" >> /mnt/etc/fstab # echo "/var/db /usr/label/sys_vardb ufs rw 1 1" >> /mnt/etc/fstab # echo "/usr/local /usr/label/sys_ulocal ufs rw 1 1" >> /mnt/etc/fstab # echo "dumpdev=NO" >> /mnt/etc/rc.conf.local # echo 'entropy_file="/var/db/entropy.db"' >> /mnt/etc/rc.conf.local # echo "tmpmfs=YES" >> /mnt/etc/rc.conf.local # echo "varmfs=YES" >> /mnt/etc/rc.conf.local # echo "background_fsck=NO" >> /mnt/etc/rc.conf.local # echo "update_motd=NO" >> /mnt/etc/rc.conf.local # echo "clear_tmp_enable=YES" >> /mnt/etc/rc.conf.local # echo "ifconfig_em0=DHCP" >> /mnt/etc/rc.conf.local # echo "ifconfig_em1=DHCP" >> /mnt/etc/rc.conf.local # sort -o /mnt/etc/rc.conf.local /mnt/etc/rc.conf.local # exit $ shutdown -r now && exit boot the disc & make other changes as needed, install ports.
