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
