sys/GENERIC  i386
>Description:
Following  http://devel.reinikainen.net/docs/how-to/Vinum/ to create a root mirror.

/boot/loader.conf:
vinum_load="YES"
vinum.autostart="YES"

Loader prompt "lsmod" lists vinum.ko as loaded and "show" lists vinum.autostart=YES.

Vinum: loaded message appears followed by "vinum: no drives found".

Setting root to da0s1a and doing a vinum start and vinum works.

Tried on 2 different boxes (single and dual cpu (with GENERIC and SMP kerns)). Both had 2 scsi disks with fresh installs.

Single cpu box could boot vinum mirror without issue on 5.2.1R
>How-To-Repeat:
Follow http://devel.reinikainen.net/docs/how-to/Vinum/ with 5.3R. I have managed to repeat 2 times.
