Vinum volume might be called <tt class="FILENAME">/dev/gvinum/concat</tt>, a name which
has no relationship with a partition name.</p>
-<p>Normally, <a href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=newfs&sektion=8"><span
-class="CITEREFENTRY"><span class="REFENTRYTITLE">newfs</span>(8)</span></a> interprets
-the name of the disk and complains if it cannot understand it. For example:</p>

-newfs: /dev/gvinum/concat: can't figure out file system partition
-</pre>

<p>In order to create a file system on this volume, use <a
