I have installed a Jaz drive as sd1 (SCSI id #2). I am using an Adaptec 2940 Ultra SCSI host adapter. FreeBSD does not seem to recognize the drive and produces the following messages: (ahc0:2:0): "iomega jaz 1GB G.60" type 0 removable SCSI 2 sd1(ahc0:2:0): Direct-Access sd1(ahc0:2:0): ILLEGAL REQUEST asc:24,0 Invalid field in CDB sd1 could not mode sense (4). Using ficticious geometry 1021MB (2091050 512 byte sectors) I would like to use this Jaz drive as a second hard disk to backup the contents of my bootable (SCSI) disk. I tried installing FreeBSD 2.1 on the Jaz drive by choosing sd1 as the destination. Unfortunately, the install program started re-installing sd0! :-(( How can I determine the correct geometry for the drive? How do I setup that geometry so that FreeBSD recognizes the drive? How can I partition the drive and setup the filesystems? I have looked at disklabel and newfs, and would appreciate a short example. I would really appreciate ANY advice that you can give.
