Sorry to interrupt, but I just want to clarify. It didn't work when you tried: [1] a disklabel with sd0d of type "raid"; then [2] bioctl -c C -r 8192 -l /dev/sd0d softraid0 But it did work when you tried: [1] a disklabel with sd0a of type "raid"; then [2] bioctl -c C -r 8192 -l /dev/sd0a softraid0 The singular question that this raises for me is... are you quite sure that your disklabel for the sd0d attempt was error free? Thanks for your indulgence. Breeno
