The beast in question is a Quantum P105S, as SCSI ID 1. I have fdisk'd it, but cannot put a disklabel on it. I'm using disklabel -r -e /dev/rsd1, it pulls up something reasonable, and after filling in all the details it complains about not being able to write it back to the device. Any clues? Stephen I do not speak for the Worker's Compensation Board of Queensland - They don't pay me enough for that!
