Over the months there has been some correspondence about newfs and its behavior when presented with the block special rather than the raw special. You'll need to search the archives in -current and -hackers for newfs. IIRC Justin Gibbs and Nate Williams may have been involved in the discussion. Normally I just newfs the raw special file - e.g 'newfs /dev/rccd0c' and have had no trouble. Can you try that and see if your problems go away? -Chris On Fri, 12 Sep 1997, Brian Campbell wrote: > Has anyone else had problems newfs'ing ccd filesystems?
