Hi,
I've installed an Openbsd4.0 server with a LSI Megaraid S-ATA 150-6 LSI
Controller. It has a RAID5 logical drive containing 6 HDs (1 is hot spare).
I would like to use most of the space for /home/backup!
I thought about using 4x350GB (or X x XXX GB, any recommandations are
appreciated) partitions (to reduce the fsck times when fsck is needed),
and concatenate them via ccd to /home/backup?!
Is this the best way to do it or would you recommand me to do it
differently?
Right now 1TB is as big as you can make a filesystem. I've got mine
set up as One Big Slice... because I can. It's just rsync snapshots of
my various media players, so I'm not hugely concerned about fsck times
or reliability. It's mostly there so I can test filesystem diffs.

GDB has a 'break' feature; why doesn't it have 'fix' too?
