Hi Using a variant of the setup of Steve Piette I managed to get 205Snap installed on a Micropolis 1558 and a WD1007 controller: W8 out (Steve had 'm in) W14 in (disable translation) I used WDFMT.EXE from www.wdc.com to format the drive with 15 heads, 1224 cyls and 35 sect/track (Steve used 36). bad144, disklabel and friends were now happily doing their job. It looks like we need a section 'ESDI installations' in the FreeBSD handbook. I'm willing to write that as soon as I understand what is going on exactly. How are people using non-WD1007 adapters doing? E.g. using an Adaptec 2322 ?
