Not sure about either. Disklabel thinks the slice is RAID under the RAID[0,1], & 4.2BSD on top off the RAID 'device'. I am definitely *not* expert at the ins & outs of NetBSD disk setup, booting, etc. I mostly followed the (previously attached) README file to set everything up, & that's what was recommended there (*not* an ideal circumstance, I know, but the best I could do). I thought ffsv2 had superceded v1 a while back, but I could be mistaken. I also thought 4.2BSD was synonomous w/ FFSv2, no ? What should the root filesystem be for the boot process to work correctly ? Also, what should the offset of the root partition be ? I took defaults when I fdisk'ed the drive (fdisk -iau0 wd[0,1]), as instructed in the afore-mentioned README file. Thanks for your reply & TIA for any new guidance & have a good one.
