Kenneth D. Merry once stated: =To format a disk, you would do something like this: = =camcontrol cmd -n da -u 0 -t 3600 -v -c "4 0 0 0 0 0" Yep, this similar to what the scsiformat(8) script was doing using the scsi(8) command. IMHO, it is very bad, the scsi(8) did not survive the switch to CAM as a backward-compatability interface... Or, at least, the nice scsiformat should be re-introduced, using the camcontrol as a back-end. Then again, where are my patches... -mi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
