I'm not sure exactly what you mean by a single boot system.
I have Mac Pro that runs Mac OS on on disk (actually a pair in a
software RAID) and FreeBSD from another pair (gmirror RAID).

-STABLE runs almost flawlessly on an 8-core late 2008 Mac PRO.
Sometimes hangs as it's booting and you need to give the snd_hda

I just noticed that I couldn't ssh -X from a machine into a fully

the desktop.
I think that this used to work, but I can't swear to it.

I'm having trouble building a jail under 5.3 (RELENG_5_3).
I'm following the process in the jail man page and it dies trying to

reporting the problem, but I havn't seen anyone post a solution.

Hi,
I have a server running 4.8 on a single disk. I'd like to set it up
to mirror and be bootable. Killer performance isn't critical, but
maximal flexibility to frankenstein it together from spare parts is.
So, I'm shying away from hardware raids, and even the pseudo-hardware
raids.
