If you have more than one vinum drive per disk, make sure to have a 
bsdlabel on that disk where the first partition has an offset of several 
sectors from the start of the disk (i.e. partition 'a' must not start at 
offset 0).  I haven't tried this with more than one drive per disk, but 
reports are welcome.

cheers,
