I recall there : being a DOS util, but I can't find that (though I suppose I can : probably get it from Adaptec's web site). Right now my drives are : <=1GB, but I will probably buy a 4GB soon and I'm not sure I have : the right firmware. I don't think so. Looking at the chips on my AHA-1542B leads me to believe that they are EPROMS that need UV light to erase and then a EPROM burner to reprogram. I think the <= 1G is only for booting and DOS. The driver uses low level scsi commands and thus is immune from the 1G limit. Warner To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
