Messenger > http://br.download.yahoo.com/messenger/ Glad it helped - muddling through does work sometimes! I don't think cdrecord would create the device - FreeBSD 5.x seems to create them automatically in the right circumstances. If you look at your Zip disk with fdisk (fdisk /dev/da0), you will see the four partitions. I had some where #4 was the partition with the data. Here is the result on a USB flash drive: it shows that partition 1 has the data, and I must address it as /dev/da0s1 501 ~ # fdisk /dev/da0 ******* Working on device /dev/da0 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=62 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl) parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=62 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 6 (0x06),(Primary 'big' DOS (>= 32MB)) start 32, size 127712 (62 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1; end: cyl 498/ head 7/ sector 32 The data for partition 2 is: <UNUSED> The data for partition 3 is: <UNUSED> The data for partition 4 is: <UNUSED> I can't experiment any more, because my IDE Zip drive died, and it is not worth replacing since CD burners reached a reasonable price.
