Hello, I am running FreeBSD 2.2.5 on HP Vectra, with Adapted 152x SCSI controller (actually, a Jaz Jet with Adapted chipset). I need to mount a magneto-optical SCSI disk, HP SureStore 2600fx, aka C1113F, with 1024-byte blocks media. I rebuilt the kernel including the "od0" device, and apparently the system recognizes the drive. Here is the relevant part of the "dmesg" output: --------------------------------------------------------------------- FreeBSD 2.2.5-RELEASE #0: Fri Apr 3 12:08:27 CEST 1998 CPU: Pentium (166.09-MHz 586-class CPU) real memory = 67108864 (65536K bytes) avail memory = 62529536 (61064K bytes) aic0 at 0x340-0x35f irq 11 on isa aic0 waiting for scsi devices to settle (aic0:3:0): "HP C1113F 2.46" type 7 removable SCSI 2 od0(aic0:3:0): Optical 1243MB (1273011 1024 byte sectors) ccd0-3: Concatenated disk drivers --------------------------------------------------------- When I try to "fdisk od0", I get the following output: --------------------------------------------------------- ******* Working on device /dev/rod0 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=621 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl) parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=621 heads=64 sectors/track=32 (2048 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 1024 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 1, size 1271807 (1241 Meg), flag 80 beg: cyl 0/ sector 2/ head 0; end: cyl 620/ sector 32/ head 63 The data for partition 2 is: <UNUSED> The data for partition 3 is: <UNUSED> The data for partition 4 is: <UNUSED> ------------------------------------------------------- and the following error message: ------------------------------------------------------ od0: oops not queued od0: cannot find label (no disk label) od0s1: cannot find label (no disk label) ------------------------------------------------------ As I have no entry for this device in /etc/dsisktab, I use "disklabel -r -w od0 auto", that gives the followin message: ------------------------------------------------------ disklabel: ioctl DIOCSDINFO: No space left on device od0: cannot find label (no disk label) od0s1: cannot find label (no disk label) ------------------------------------------------------ The drive has a switch to configure it as "magneto-optical" or "direct access"; I configured it as "magneto-optical", as the "direct access" option allows me to see it as sd0, but the machine hangs when I try to write to the disk. Can anybody help me, please ?
