Here's the real error pasted in: a newfs -U /dev/vinum/plex/raid.p0 gives: ... 23425543840, 23425920160, 23426296480, 23426672800, 23427049120, 23427425440, 23427801760, 23428178080, 23428554400, 23428930720, 23429307040, 23429683360, 23430059680, 23430436000, 23430812320, 23431188640, 23431564960, 23431941280, 23432317600, 23432693920, 23433070240, 23433446560, 23433822880, 23434199200, 23434575520, 23434951840, 23435328160, 23435704480, 23436080800, 23436457120, 23436833440, 23437209760, 23437586080, 23437962400, 23438338720,newfs: wtfs: 65536 bytes at sector 23438715040: Cannot allocate memory But: newfs -U -s 23438338720 /dev/vinum/plex/raid.p0 works..
