My system has three scsi harddisks (4G). FreeBSD is installed on the first hd (da0) in partition 1 occupying 1G out of 4G, i want to mirror the 1G and create a RAID 5 volume on the rest of the 3G, total usable size = 6G (3G x 3 - 3G). how can i do this? I can't even create a partition on the 2nd and 3rd harddrive it said Operation not permitted. and can't use /stand/sysinstall to fdisk since it can't find the disks.. but i checked the boot up message and da1 and da2 is found at bootup. Please help.. thanx alot in advance.
