Mentioned in the past week or so that I have two 160G SATA drives with
one slice each, each slice has 1G reserved (not currently used) for
swap, the remainder s1d is for vinum. The two are striped with "vinum
stripe -v /dev/ad4s1d /dev/ad6s1d".
At boot vinum often does not remember these drives should be striped.
Booting (usually, but not always as sometimes vinum works) drops me
into single user where I have to manually run the above vinum command
again which finally creates /dev/vinum/vinum0. At that point my fs will
mount cleanly. I don't believe the config is being written to the disks
and not sure that I'm not the one doing something wrong:

dkelly@Opus [76] vinum dumpconfig

If I'm not mistaken "dumpconfig" should have produced results similar
to "list" but while "list" displays running information from kernel
space, "dumpconfig" should go direct to the media for its answer? And
dumpconfig is finding nothing?
Have tried putting vinum_load="YES" in /boot/loader.conf in addition to
start_vinum="YES" in /etc/rc.conf. Vinum_load only seems to cause the
rc scripts to say, "vinum already loaded" or similar.
