>Description:
apparently 'diskinfo -t' does not work with disks smaller than about 6.3GB. however, instead of falling gracefully, it does it like this:
Seek times:
Full stroke: 250 iter in 6.251458 sec = 25.006 msec
Half stroke: diskinfo: read error or disk too small for test.: Input/output error
>How-To-Repeat:
dd if=/dev/zero of=test.img bs=512 seek=10000000 count=1
mdconfig -a -t vnode -f test.img
diskinfo -t /dev/md0
