I can reproduce the panic I experienced before. When in single user mode if I try to mount a raid3 array that isn't complete I get the following error: panic: Lock (sx) GEOM topology locked @ /usr/src/sys/geom/raid3/g_raid3.c:775.
The full error and alltrace is here: http://duttonbros.com/freebsd/ddb.log As a workaround I would boot a pre March 20 kernel, rebuild the array, then boot the new kernel again.
