Iomega likes to count with 1000 instead of 1024 so 250Million bytes is actually 238Mega bytes. As for the other questions, I don't know. I have a zip 100 parallel and I had to enable the scbus and scsi direct access. I don't know if the ATAPI also need these but that should be easy checked by recompiling with these devices enabled. > > > Thanks in advance, and have a good day. > > -- > - Ayman Zarka. > > Gr, -- Axel Scheepers UNIX System Administrator email: axel@axel.truedestiny.net a.scheepers@iae.nl http://axel.truedestiny.net/~axel ------------------------------------------ Quick, sing me the BUDAPEST NATIONAL ANTHEM!! ------------------------------------------ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
