Thanks for the help.  I carried on with the remainder of the
instructions and it seemed to take.  However on reboot I get the
following:

sr0*
Trying bsd...
open /pci@1d,700000/scsi@4/disk@0,0:a/etc/random.seed: Invalid argument
open /pci@1d,700000/scsi@4/disk@0,0:a/bsd/: Invalid argument

Boot:

# what do I type in at this stage.  It doesn't seem to want my
passphrase for the softraid.  Any pointers would be appreciated.  

Thanks,

Ron Rodriguez
