2009-12-02 Thread Marin Atanasov
Hello, I'm going to make my partition mirrored using the geom utilities, but however I've noticed that I cannot use the same way I used to do it under 7.2 and 8.0-RC1. Here's the situation - I tried a lot of times to make my root partition mirrored using gvinum, but each time when I boot in the
