Date: Wed, 18 Oct 1995 13:41:06 -0700 From: "Justin T. Gibbs" Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk It sounds like you don't have the prober geometry set up on this drive. The translation should be 64 heads, 32 sectors/track, #MB cylinders in normal translation or 255,63,#MB/7 if you have extended translation enabled in SCSI-Select. Use the #MB reported by the disk probe for these calculations. You should set the geometry using the eometry option in the partition editor of the installation program. >I had strange problem with 2940+SEAGATE ST15230N: .. > >Seppo -- Justin T.
