I upgraded my 7.0 system to 7.1-RELEASE with freebsd-update only to find that it no longer boots correctly, instead crashing with a BTX backtrace. If I break to the loader prompt and use 'ls /boot', I also get a backtrace. A new install of 7.1 on this hardware using a separate SCSI card and drive array also leads to a BTX backtrace. I have copied this below as the first (most

The other gotcha is, of course, that the boot sectors aren't RAID'd - so if /dev/sda goes, replacing it will make the system unbootable since it doesn't contain the boot sectors. Hot swap wi...

I don't know, but I've never had to do it, when using plain mirroring, on either C4, C5 or C6. I can imagine you would need to if /boot was RAID 0 striped, if indeed that is even poss...
