I can format the disk with /stand/sysinstall. I can create directories. But if I attempt to write data, CP freezes. After CP freezes, various things have occurred. In some cases the kernel starts spitting out an error continuously: wfd0: i/o error, status=51<ready,opdone,check>, error=40 Most recently, the result was a long pause, no error message, but then my hard drive (not the IOMEGA) began spinning continuously and any attempt to touch any disk locked up. >How-To-Repeat: mount a 250MB Zip disk and try to write a large file (like the kernel to it). >Fix: None, though I wondered if the larger disk geometry caused a field size to be exceeded. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
