I created geom journal according to this documentation:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/geom-gjournal.html

I already had partition on second drive (da1s1d)

# gjournal label -f /dev/da1s1d
# gjournal load
# newfs -O 2 -J /dev/da1s1d.journal
# mount /dev/da1s1d.journal /data

everything worked fine until I rebooted with this fstab: 
----------------------------------------------------------
# geom_journaling
/dev/da1s1d.journal     /data           ufs     rw              3       3
----------------------------------------------------------

FreeBSD failed to boot- because it said there is no such a filesystem....bah.

then I looked at /dev/da* and found this:

crw-r-----  1 root  operator    0, 105 May 20 13:52 /dev/da1s1.journal
crw-r-----  1 root  operator    0, 106 May 20 13:52 /dev/da1s1.journalc
crw-r-----  1 root  operator    0, 107 May 20 16:52 /dev/da1s1.journald

Changed /etc/fstab:
----------------------------------------------------------
# geom_journaling
/dev/da1s1.journald     /data           ufs     rw              3       3
----------------------------------------------------

Now everything works fine except this error message:

GEOM_JOURNAL: Journal 2508477697: da1s1 contains data.
GEOM_JOURNAL: Journal 2508477697: da1s1 contains journal.
GEOM_JOURNAL: Journal da1s1 clean.
WARNING: Expected rawoffset 0, found 63

Whats wrong?
