Yesterday I made a clean install of FreeBSD 10 on my 320GB hdd. On installation I see the option to install it on ZFS. So I said Yes. After that, asked me if I want the disk on Mirror or on Stripe. I said on Stripe. The installation went fine. But now on my /dev I have this:
Code: 
ad10
ad10p1
ad10p2
ad10p3
ad10p4
ad10p4.eli
ada0
ada0p1
ada0p2
ada0p3
ada0p4
ada0p4.eli
Is this normal? Seems like I have two different disks but I have only one.
 
Re: Disk question

The ad10 is just the old reference to the new ada0. You probably have messages like this:
Code: 
ada0: Previously was known as ad10
 
Re: Disk question

No because before reinstalling FreeBSD, I played for a few days with Gentoo Linux. So it's impossible to see the old FreeBSD. Also I don't get any error like this.
Any idea how to fix this issue and remove completely the useless reference?
zpool status returns
Code: 
zpool status
  pool: bootpool
 state: ONLINE
  scan: none requested
config:

	NAME                                          STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
	bootpool                                      ONLINE       0     0     0
	  gptid/f034a18d-9736-11e3-adf6-001bfc9eff14  ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: No known data errors

  pool: zroot
 state: ONLINE
  scan: none requested
config:

	NAME          STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
	zroot         ONLINE       0     0     0
	  ada0p4.eli  ONLINE       0     0     0

errors: No known data errors

So my disk is ada0. I also have encryption. Has any relation this or not?
 
Re: Disk question

So the message will be removed in a future update, I must remove it by hand or just don't make any hurt to be there?
 
Re: Disk question

It shouldn't hurt anything. If you really want to get rid of it you could set kern.cam.ada.legacy_aliases to 0 (default is 1; i.e. create the legacy aliases).
