Problem: FreeBSD 9 use GPT Partitionlabel by default to remove with Linux do:
fdisk message: WARNING: GTP (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sdX'
The util fdisk isn't support GPT.
do on console:
sudo parted /dev/sdX
mklabel msdos (Enter Yes!)
quit
now use Linux fdisk to recreate a new partion Table

Problem: If you setup a free freebsd webserver with two disks on same size the ufs2 filesystem fails the gmirror raid1 if the server lost power. The problem is that open files are destroyed.
Solution: If you setup a new freebsd system create for every partition a extra partition (for journal) install the gjournal AFTER GMIRROR!! and make some power failure tests. After powerfailure the system must reboot and rebuild its mirror and should run online after rebuild without any problem.
Howto for
- gmirror
- gjournal
If you have a older PC and have learned Linux you can have a closer Look at the new OS of PcBSD or DektopBSD


Its a easy way to learn “real Unix” and understand the structure of a Unix OS, you can setup all kinds of BSD Unix on a very high count of different hardware. The most popular programs of Linux can be used here too, many commands are like linux commands and you can compile always the newest programs onto your System for the highest performance instead of pre-compiled software like redhat-debian-packages (.deb/.rpm)
