Hi,

I have the same problems with Soren's new ATA driver:

fuchur# mount_msdos -o noauto /dev/afd0s4 /zip
mount_msdos: /dev/afd0s4: Invalid argument 

With the old driver and slice wfd0s4, this worked with msdos
formatted zip-mediums.

kernel konfig:
--------------

controller     ata0
device         atadisk0        # ATA disk drives
device         atapicd0        # ATAPI CDROM drives
device         atapifd0        # ATAPI floppy drives   

I've removed the old wdc* controller- and device-
options completly.

dmesg output with the old driver:
---------------------------------

wdc1: unit 1 (atapi): <IOMEGA ZIP 100 ATAPI/23.D>, removable,intr,iordis
wfd0: medium type unknown (no disk)
wfd0: buggy Zip drive, 64-block transfer limit set

dmesg output with the new driver:
---------------------------------
