    Same thing.  Don't use vinum's autostart feature.  Try specifying an
    actual partition being used as a vinum drive.

This is not a new kernel; vinum worked for at least 3 years here. The message do not appear on bootup: I am using root on vinum, so I have to specify the drives it should use.


    I don't know regarding the read errors.  That sounds like a different
    issue.

Wouldn't dscheck return an error which makes a physical read to fail? That's probable why vinum gets a read error and shuts down the system.
