As a workaround, you maybe you can obliterate the previous configuration by
dd'ing /dev/zero to the first 257 sectors of the relevant vinum 'drives'.  I'd
do this without geom_vinum loaded though.

No idea as to your other answers; I'm still not sure whether I'm experiencing
data corruption on a concat volume due to geom_vinum but I don't have the time
to debug this. My home machine has a complete gvinum mirror setup (no concat)
and I've had absolutely 0 problems with it. It's running 5.3-BETA5.
