If a peripheral has been assigned to the 'uk0' device, that means that it is unsupported by any of the standard SCSI drivers (for disks, CD-ROMs, tapes, etc.) The only operations that can be done on uk0 devices are the standard SCSI ioctl's. If you want to get this device working under FreeBSD, you'll have to write a driver for it. :( Donald Burr [d_burr@ix.netcom.com], PO Box 91212, Santa Barbara CA 93190-1212 TEL (805)564-1871 / FAX 564-2315 / WWW http://www.geopages.com/WallStreet/2072 PGP Public Key available by request (send e-mail) or on Public Key Servers. ** Uphold your right to privacy - Use PGP. **
