Hello.
I'm running a 2.2.7 FreeBSD server. I have 2 6GB drives and I added a 13.6 GB
hard drive with 26353 cylinders, and /stand/sysinstall wont let me enter a
value that high. Actually it lets me enter a value but then when i create a
slice, the slice tops out at 8.4 MB.
I followed the instructions for installing a dedicated-use disk but it only
recognized the drive as 8.4 MB (about 16 million blocks):
109 #newfs /dev/rwd2c
Warning: 1008 sector(s) in last cylinder unallocated
/dev/rwd2c: 16514064 sectors in 4032 cylinders of 1 tracks, 4096 sectors
8063.5MB in 252 cyl groups (16 c/g, 32.00MB/g, 7680 i/g)
the actual physical geometry is
26353 cyls/16 heads/63 sectors = 26563824 sectors
Do you know what I can do to correct this?
