--- Comment #8 from Toomas Soome <tso...@freebsd.org> --- (In reply to David Chisnall from comment #7) Ok, so your second disk is not partitioned and the size is misreported, that is bad. The update in stable and current will ignore unpartitioned disks, but for mirror it should not matter as long as the first disk is readable. The problem is when your first disk will fail. Note you can fix the partitioning by zpool detach, create partitions, zpool attach. The partition will give us chance to detect the correct size for the disk/partition, so we would be able to read pool labels. However, there is another problem -- if the BIOS is buggy and your pool size will go past the *reported* disk size, then the BIOS is most likely unable to read the pool past that size line anyhow. If so, there are only 2 options - either make sure the boot pool is within limits set by BIOS, or use UEFI. for test, you can copy /boot/loader from 12-stable or current into /boot/loader.test, on boot, press space on first spinner and enter /boot/loader.test, or start boot loader from iso/usb -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
