Hello John, Tony,
Thanks for your responses. I think I will try to go with John's approach
(ie via gmirror), as I've used it previously for a raiding on
equally-sized disks.
John, I will be trying out your suggestions in a while. Hope to get your
help later down the road. :)
Tony, I'm quit

I'd say use gvinum. It's a bit trickyactually, it's VERY tricky.
You have to get the geometry of the shared volume precisely right on the
120GB drive to match the 80GB drive, then you can allocate the rest of
the free space.
Honestly, you *could* cheat here. :) I think
Set up your 8
Hi all,
I unfortunately have 2 uneuqally sized SATA disks to set up a mirrored
shared folder: 80GB and 120GB. On the 120GB I plan to set up this way:
/temp2GB (double the system memory)
/shared80GB
/ 38GB
I plan to mirror /shared onto the 80GB. It won't be bootable,
