Sorry to respond to myself, but as the error message below indicates, it is either because the pass driver isn't in the kernel, or because da0 doesn't exist. In your case, it's the latter. That's because the da driver couldn't attach because of the fatal error it got back from the read capacity command. > > On Sat, 6 Feb 1999, David O'Brien wrote: > > > > > You will get more mileage by discussing this type of thing on > > > freebsd-scsi@freebsd.org > > > > > > > > > > > Is there ``/sbin/scsiformat''?
