Hello everyone, I'm sending again my email hoping I would get an answer for my question. I got an answer for the first part. But the second part ( at the end of this email) is still not answered. (my mail): FreeBSD freebsd.identd.net 4.6-RC FreeBSD 4.6-RC #5: Tue Jun 4 17:42:51 PDT 2002 az@freebsd.identd.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/FREEBSD i386 I'm trying to figure out the right kernel options for my IOMEGA IDE ZIP 250 (internal drive). After gathering information from 200+ emails from the mailing and search the: http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/hardware.html#ZIP-SUPPORT http://www.freebsd.org/FAQ/disks.html#DISKLABEL I did the following without adding any new stuff to my kernel and I got the idea am in the right direction before I add any device or option: without booting with the zip disk inside the drive I was getting in my dmesg: afd0: 0MB <IOMEGA ZIP 250 ATAPI> [0/64/32] at ata3-slave PIO3 But when leaving the disk inside and reboot I can see: afd0: 250MB <IOMEGA ZIP 250 ATAPI> [0/64/32] at ata3-slave PIO3 or: /va/log/messages: Jun 4 17:05:11 freebsd /kernel: afd0: 239MB <IOMEGA ZIP 250 ATAPI> [239/64/32] at ata3-slave PIO3 So I rebooted with the disk inside and went to /stand/sysinstall Configure --> Fdisk afd0 --> A (use entire disk) , W (write changes) and standard (no boot manager) I got the message: wrote FDISK partition information out successfully (100%) Label --> creat 489440 blocks (238MB) are free. and FS /backup and I got 0 MB free. Disk: afd0 Partition name: afd0s1 Free: 0 blocks (0MB) Part Mount Size Newfs Part Mount Size Newfs---- ----- ---- ----- ---- ----- ---- ----- afd0s1e /backup 238MB UFS+S Y so far so good. in my /etc/fstab I have: /dev/afd0 /zip ufs rw,noauto 0 0 Of course when I try to mount it I see the zip lights on for 15 sec. then I get freebsd# mount /zip mount: /dev/afd0: Input/output error freebsd# dmesg | tail afd0: 239MB <IOMEGA ZIP 250 ATAPI> [239/64/32] at ata3-slave PIO3 Mounting root from ufs:/dev/ad0s1a afd0: READ_BIG command timeout - resetting So now I knew am doing it right so I grabed the options of the mailing list/ handbook and added them but didn't work, so I started playing with these options and try to build my my kernel with and without one of the following but unfortunately I couldn't get a successful build. and it was giving: #IOMEGA ZIP Drive 250 MB Options: controller scbus0 # device da0 # device vp0 # IOMEGA IDE ZIP Drive 250MB options VP0_DEBUG # ZIP/ZIP+ debug config: line 267: Obsolete keyword 'controller' found - use 'device' So I changed it to device it gave: Warning: device "vp" is unknown and so on I played with them many times. I already have these in my kernel before: # SCSI peripherals device scbus # SCSI bus (required) device da # Direct Access (disks) My question is: 1) What proper device/options/controller should I add in my kernel to be able to mount my IDE IOMEGA ZIP drive 250MB? Thanks in advance, and have a good day. -- - Ayman Zarka. -----BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org mQGiBDy5PK4RBADbeYGQsxqby0Mg2NDXV3BzDR6fE5pws+01FFjuhpuIYwRq1N8Q QQrc8mrDyXxOBMBf5kwarfYa452tZXCy/la71N6f+kEWp0YsafBKRCQSKjMcGfb+ AyiTKcWCXb4YiS0xgCCfrh9QNvZKQaGtG2jHOfeRm8wy/l5DesKz+WqfCwCgyRXR c5m3YXKEI3a8repPgrxl4XUEAK+suS/tUctfLr5RCdKxHkRewrZAAOnOImTZUbIZ HlaPNHf6c40qVCF4O8WZTK/0F9lOiyzQOaL30ShPjwjxU/lUKdhI7nyDsl9pjdYZ okU/xPNFGfA+ugMjzEqJ5amlbb6pYJncjpHLaDIHAUsjiSUtKoCLMnxliV8ONsU8 3ZzPA/47ZL2f3F3kD4irNdSmYIE9Uyg12Ml6LsIPGZsjrYwVJu4a9TjaSYzfrXh9 At7OuzdxTldwHCbqsOqc/wLVpCY1tNFuLTUJfQ73HA649l+XbdmUbm7tJQEf64E2 f+EHBNLEw5kS6X8ySOjQIHBO80lCDlmFNzmaJZF3HWL3BoI7WLQjQXltYW4gWmFy a2EgPGF6QGZyZWVic2QuaWRlbnRkLm5ldD6IVwQTEQIAFwUCPLk8rgULBwoDBAMV AwIDFgIBAheAAAoJEJX3aiwtih/hQecAoLAG/31xDIHxArmFzhH4KfaNzqwsAKCp DO9WURAiLMU3bTs3JHe0NwJ52bkCDQQ8uTzEEAgAhDAVX4AtVuya9yVA7e7/p1B1 qE2BcLZKkPf12mPMMhWiCMN+/X4860dZ9JvnxDyPn8uPz8tzPCyFFiLl7wAbGHHq ivkp8PrhgyyvhAd158ZN0rHNPPXjkHPdh887wt8J1xjv4/DZL7uHTcwrp16Lx9GY blAtEhEatwYGwaaCKEPazIn5duOY/QDGall0ZDuzTaeyYcE3C0n9jXOAwmSoi5Sm aJK+r4u3oUXanLOgaTbTBeiRTifg6QrMMcjtJmgYQqHisuoFCoDiwrjoA0b1IPpQ zEP3vXND5SM2wwImEs12IqOKkICgFvTMsWC25onrXMFJVcONuKCxpL+oRh2DXwAD BQf+Mo/K8poqF6A0okT4l17Z6m5Vwdo3S8gSweH0+JPLBv1Pbgclqy+9OO9xlvwn u8X744MWwKvqaLInzlnnEFMb2MoPhk22CXgQfcVrfF0wdO0hMdl+Hf/iHbmCDtKN aFYYHEDuRwtRfNhtXTIFN3TZRtC43npo6tYRExglbpU6RlLFSarF2A3AJjCtOuvf kkbkKtFPtnXqk1qzRoGumzmoHwsOfgJ/EMT1F1pFQrGhdzi+PBWsbUW4kyesxzvu dGiIuufj97refiF1bHnWl8UlJ2u2BHTfU89rF863UNNVfK2Hok3Toim0RTHNbwWE Gxji1p4c5KbKpNU0o8hoXIlj4IhGBBgRAgAGBQI8uTzEAAoJEJX3aiwtih/hqE0A oLMQR3o96VZQidaEAYiGPHUSxtHWAJ98vy1WTN66SzfC05TrtMqe6ACDRQ== =Iqsd -----END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK----- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
