What is the next step?
Create gpt+ shifted partition?
create a gpt partition on the raid volume a newfs it.
then create a second gpt partition on wd3, type ffs, which is the
same size as the gpt partition on the raid, but with start shifted
by 64 or 128 sectors (I though it was 128 but David may be right about it
being 64).
spectre# gpt create raid1
spectre# gpt add -t ffs raid1
Partition added, use:
dkctl raid1 addwedge <wedgename> 34 3907028925 <type>
to create a wedge for it
spectre# dkctl raid1 addwedge dk1 34 3907028925 ffs
dk1 created successfully.
spectre# newfs -O2 dk1

The Problem is now, that there is already a gpt table on wd3.
How could be create a second gpt partition with shift of 64 sectors?
