Re: vinum unable to find root
Hello, Ok, this one makes me look like an idiot. Rebooted one more time and it fired right up, strange, but it is working, reviving right now. I don't know if this will help anyone, but this was on a 5.2-RELEASE system, two 40 gb IDE drives, identically partitioned, My thanks again to all.

vinum unable to find root
Hello, Trying to set up FreeBSD on a mirrored raid1 root. I have followed the section in ch12 of "The Complete FreeBSD" added the lines to loader.conf, altered the disklabel, and ran fsck on /dev/vinum/root which worked fine. When i changed /etc/fstab from /dev/ad0s1a to /dev/vinum/root and rebooted i am getting the error: setrootbyname failed ffs_mountroot can not find root root mount failed: 6 and then i am asked for manual root specifications. When i enter ufs:ad0s1a or ufs:vinum/root i get a kernel panic and the system reboots. My disklabels and fstab are below, any suggestions welcome. Thanks.
