This is wrong ^ Try again with: fdisk -iy -g -b 960 sd0 fdisk -iy -g -b 960 sd1 Note that this setup is not really supported. If you do these kinds of things please read the install scripts and understand what they are doing beforehand. Until the installer grows native support for softraid volumes, that is. But I'm not aware of any concrete plans to do that. > disklabel -E sd0 (a, 64, 234441521, RAID, w, q) > disklabel -E sd1 (a, 64, 234441521, RAID, w, q) > bioctl -c 1 -l sd0a,sd1a softraid0 -> softraid0: RAID 1 volume attached as > sd3 > install (using sd3 as my disc) > > Greetings > Leo >
