This cake has been a big hit for years. The recipe comes from the back of the Kroger grocery store’s baking cocoa tin. Hershey’s, Nestle, and the others have a normal "Duncan Hines", "Betty Cooker" cake type recipes on their tins. I feel like Kroger got the recipe wrong and the wonderful result is this heavy, but heavenly, rich, sweet, and moist chocolate cake. So buy whichever cocoa tin you want. Just don’t use their recipes! Stick with this one from Kroger, a grocery chain in the Midwest.
CAKE
2 cups sugar
2 cups all purpose flour
2 sticks margarine
3 eggs
1/4 cup Kroger Baking Cocoa
1 cup water
1/2 cup buttermilk (or milk)
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
First off, CTRL-D. It gets you back to the FreeNAS dos menu after you've elected #6 and gone to the shell.
My FreeNAS error cause the boot process to stop.
The fix:
# /sbin/fsck -y /dev/ad0s1a
I did that for each IDE partition, CTRL-D, and reboot.
Seriously?
One day after getting FreeNAS and my Mac to play well together, Lion (which is amazing with all the guestures, etc.) breaks up the party.

Installed FreeNAS using the method describe below that allows for incremental RAID growth:

Ran into two problems.
1. I couldn't figure out why the author picked the partition sizes that he did.
2. Using the really small "grow at a later date" partitions was a performance diaster.
Partition Sizes
Figured out that the first partition size is based on the smallest hard drive. After that, the next partition size is determined what's unsed in the next smallest hard drive, and so forth. Proceeding this way, knowing the max hard drive size your system will run is important. Plotting out how to get from your current hard drive setup to your goal setup is also imporant.
My intial setup has the following: 250GB, 250GB, 640GB, and 1TB. Adding a disk as time, money, and space is needed, my growth plan continues as follows:
Round 1: Cost = existing hardware + $130 (ebay upgrades)
250GB, 250GB, 640GB, 1TB
4 x 250GB = 750GB
Round 2: Est Cost: $50
1TB, 250GB, 640GB, 1TB
4 x 250GB = 750GB
3 x 390GB = 780GB
Total: 1.5TB
Round 3: Est Cost: $50
1TB, 1TB, 640GB, 1TB
4 x 250GB = 750GB
3 x 390GB = 780GB
3 x 250GB = 500GB
Total: 2TB
Round 4: Est Cost: $50
1TB, 1TB, 1TB, 1TB
4 x 250GB = 750GB
3 x 390GB = 780GB
3 x 250GB = 500GB
3 x 250GB = 500GB
3 x 110GB = 220GB
Total: 2.75TB
