I need any help anyone can offer with ccd.  What I've got so far is the
ability to use ccdconfig to configure ccd0 just fine.  Of course I have
to unmount any involved filesystems which is a pain.  I have tried using
ccdconfig from the command line as follows;

ccdconfig ccd0 0 0 /dev/wd0s1se /dev/wd1s1e

If I am understanding the man pages properly this sets up 2 slices to
look as if they are one, or concatenate serially as they say which is
what I am looking for in this specific case.

This all works fine and well until I go to mount the newly configured
ccd0, I've tried;

mount /dev/ccd0 /usr (the former slice held /usr)
mount /dev/ccd0c /usr

both to no avail.  When I execute newfs on the ccd then I can mount it
on /usr but since newfs was run there is nothing there anymore.  Does
anyone know how to configure ccd so that a preexisting filesystem will
not be wiped out?  I would appreciate any input on this.
