Hi,
I am trying to format some 3.5 HD disks for use with the FreeBSD 2.1
I tried the following procedure:
# fdformat -f1440 /dev/fd0.1440
(works fine but sometimes it reports some errors like:
fd0: input ready timeout
NOTE that under X11 it works without any error)
# disklabel -w -r /dev/fd0.1440 floppy3
(works ok too..)
# newfs /dev/fd0.1440
(reports these errors)
Warning: Block size and bytes per inode restrict cylinders per group to 5.
Warning: 1216 sector(s) in last cylinder unallocated
/dev/rfd0.1440: 2880 sectors in 1 cylinders of 1 tracks, 4096 sectors
1.4MB in 1 cyl groups (5 c/g, 10.00MB/g, 4448 i/g)
super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at:
32,
So , the 3,5" HD disk has only 851968 bytes free....
Any ideas ?
Thanx in advance
Chris
