X-Mailer: VM 6.22 under Emacs 19.34.3 Sender: owner-bugs@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I have three rather old SCSI disks that I want to make into a news server. I have tried this with a 2940 and an NCR SCSI controllers. The problem I encounter is that newfs hangs somewhere into the format of the disk. I've actually even found this on newfsing the individual portions of the disks as well... But strangely, the install seems to run just fine... without a hitch. Why can the install format a partition and I can't later? This is all with both 2.2.1 and 2.2.2. BTW... 2.2.2 doesn't set it's rc.conf options with the sysinstall utility correctly... :).
