I just physically installed a second scsi drive. It is a quantum viking II 9.1 gig, target 6, lun0. The scsi controller is tekram's xx875, using the sym driver. The driver sees the drive as da1, recognizes the cyl/heads/sectors, and all that stuff. When I try to add the drive to freebsd (4.7-Prerelease, which I think is 4.6-stable) using /stand/sysinstall, fdisk fails saving the label to disk, and so does disklabel. If I try it via the command line, with dd and disklabel, I get "/dev/da1: permission denied". I know that the drive is not write protected, because the jumber is not installed to write protect it. It is also a new drive. Is there a step I'm missing? My intuition tells me that maybe there's nothing at /dev/da1, but if that's the case, then the system should not report in the boot messages that there's a da1? Help would ve very appreciated. robert To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
