  I like s4 for my metadb area.  Personal preference from way way back.

  Easy to fix^H^H^Hmodify.

Real easy. Besides, there's no law anywhere that says that the metadb *must* be on slice7, although all the Sun engineers I've learned from always used it. I seem to remember that it had something to do with latency/geometry, what with s7 being on the outer rims of the disk... perhaps I'm off. But s4 will certainly work. The important thing is that there is a slice for metadb.

  but but .. it was just an example !

Sure. And don't get me wrong, what you did there, the whole shebang, I take my hat off to you for dedication.
