I dont' know if there is anything special that the OS has to do as far as
large drive support is concerneed, but we just added the following drive
to our system, and can't get anywhere with it:
a1 at ahc0 bus 0 target 1 lun 0
da1: 17366MB (35566000 512 byte sectors: 255H 63S/T 2213C)
da1: 40.0MB/s transfers (20.0MHz, offset 8, 16bit), Tagged Queueing Enabled
da1: <COMPAQ DGHS18Y 01A0> Fixed Direct Access SCSI3 device
We currently have three controllers in that machine, with 2+ drives per
controller...the other drives all work (4gig drives), but this new 18gig
appears to be a problem.

If I run /stand/sysinstall->Configure->Label, I get back a message stating
that 'No disks found! Please verify that your disk controller is being
properly probed at boot time'
The system comes out on uname -a as 3.0-CURRENT, dated November 4th...
Thoughts and/or ideas? Its obvious that the kernel is finding all the drives,
so I'm curious why /stand/sysinstall doesn't see them...
Thanks...
