which I think does FFSv2. Thanks again & TIA for any more ideas :-).
Have a good one.
That does FFSv2 indeed.

First, thanks for all the help so far :-). I am going to wipe my 2 intended root drives using a FreeBSD USB boot disk & try again. So as to hopefully eliminate any fat-fingering that may have happened, & also to retain a log of what I did & what resulted, I am going to (try to) script the process. To that end I grepped out the stuff from the README-file posted earlier in the thread & culled it down to just operate on the 2 intended root drives. I will run this w/ output redirected to a file that I can retreive from the NetBSD USB boot disk & post for more questions if it doesn't work. I attach the shell script & other files referenced therein. I would be eternally grateful if savvier-than-I folks could give a quick perusal for obvious screw-ups or recommendations :-). I would like advice on how to automatically generate a simple disklabel for the resulting RAID1 device, see comments in the shell script (1st file). TIA & have a nice weekend.
