I am running 3.0-RELEASE and cannot get the LS-120 driver to work for me. I cannot put a BSD filesystem on the drive, even tho I am following the manpages. This is a dual-boot machine, and the drive does seem to work OK with Win98, but I can't get it to do much of anything for me under FreeBSD. The LS-120 drive is configured as the master on the second IDE controller. Here is a script, with comments, of what I am trying to do: Script started on Tue Nov 10 13:48:12 1998 takakazu# Here are the appropriate boot lines from /var/log/messages: takakazu# tail -32 /var/log/messages | head -15 Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: fdc0 at 0x3f0-0x3f7 irq 6 drq 2 on isa Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: wdc0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7 irq 14 on isa Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: wdc0: unit 0 (wd0): <QUANTUM BIGFOOT_CY4320A> Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: wd0: 4134MB (8467200 sectors), 8960 cyls, 15 heads, 63 S/T, 512 B/S Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: wdc0: unit 1 (atapi): <CD-ROM 36X/AKU/U21I>, removable, intr, dma, iordis Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: wcd0: 0/6187Kb/sec, 128Kb cache, audio play, 255 volume levels, ejectable tray Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: wcd0: 120mm data disc loaded, unlocked Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: wdc1 at 0x170-0x177 irq 15 on isa Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: wdc1: unit 0 (atapi): <LS-120 COSM 02 Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: UHD Floppy/025AC0AA>, removable, iordy Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: wfd0: 120MB floppy disk loaded Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: wfd0: 963 cyls, 8 heads, 32 S/T, 512 B/S Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: wt0 not found at 0x300 Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: mcd0 not found at 0x300 Nov 10 13:45:56 takakazu /kernel: matcdc0 not found at 0x230 takakazu# The state of the filesystems, to show that we haven't maxed-out anything: takakazu# df -k Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on /dev/wd0s2a 79359 17460 55551 24% / /dev/wd0s2d 229566 1 211200 0% /export /dev/wd0s2f 127023 13 116849 0% /home /dev/wd0s2g 349343 240089 81307 75% /usr /dev/wd0s2h 190543 1 175299 0% /usr/local /dev/wd0s2e 127023 833 116029 1% /var /dev/wd0s1 2958160 559104 2399056 19% /win98 procfs 4 4 0 100% /proc takakazu# Now let's try the commands from the man pages: takakazu# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/wfd0 count=16 dd: /dev/wfd0: Input/output error takakazu# takakazu# disklabel -rw wfd0 fd120m disklabel: /dev/rwfd0c: Input/output error takakazu# This next command is incorrect in the man page.
