Hi,
For six months now I try to mount my SCSI Castlewood ORB drive as a DOS
partition to no avail. Can you figure this one out please?
Computer: Athlon 700
Memory: 256 Mb
OS: FreeBSD 4.0
The corresponding lines in /var/log/messages are:
Dec 16 15:43:59 /kernel: Waiting 3 seconds for SCSI devices to settle

The corresponding lines in /var/run/dmesg.boot are:

The output from fdisk /dev/da1 is:
******* Working on device /dev/da1 *******
parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are:
cylinders=534 heads=128 sectors/track=63 (8064 blks/cyl)
parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are:
cylinders=534 heads=128 sectors/track=63 (8064 blks/cyl)
Media sector size is 512
Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1
Information from DOS bootblock is:
The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 5,(Extended DOS)
start 8064, size 4178048 (2040 Meg), flag 0
beg: cyl 1/ sector 1/ head 0;
end: cyl 517/ sector 63/ head 127
The data for partition 2 is:
<UNUSED>
The data for partition 3 is:
<UNUSED>
The data for partition 4 is:
<UNUSED>
The relevant lines int /etc/fstab looks like this:
# Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass#
/dev/da1s1 /orb msdos rw,noauto 0 0
/dev/da2s4 /izip msdos rw,noauto 0 0
Yet, when I issue a "mount /izip" it will mount the zip drive properly
but when
I issue a "mount /orb" it complains:
msdos: /dev/da1s1: Invalid argument
I tried /dev/da1s1 through /dev/da1s4 as well as /dev/da1a through
/dev/da1h
but no success.
Please help
Thanks
