I assume this is a reply to Thierry's question:

I stated that the correct answer was to set the start_vinum variable,
but there are reasons to use vinum_drives (otherwise it wouldn't be
there). You use vinum_drives to specify that you want to start only
certain drives, not all of them. In this case, yes, it should be
/dev/wd1 and /dev/wd2 (or /dev/wd1s1 and /dev/wd2s1 if you insist).
There should be no partition letter at the end. Note also that vinum
will not use partition c.
