[SunRescue] metatool / disksuite problems

[Gil Young]

I've done it VIA GUI and command, command is much faster IMHO, but I did
goof once and it took me about 1 hour to fix my goof when I encapsulated the
root disk, but did not do a "metaroot" command or watever it was to make the
miror bootable before rebooting into the mirror :(.  I dont think that would
happen using the GUI, but I am not sure.
