I have

options         GEOM_GPT                # GUID Partition Tables.
options         GEOM_MIRROR

in my 6.4 install (just recently upgraded from 6.3). For all possible
options and devices run make LINT in the kernel config dir.

Do you have remote IP KVM for the machine or some management option?
