Just for the record (and the archive, should anyone else need this info), that solved it. Both 3.1-R and 3.2-R have no problems with the AEC-4412. It was just something in 2.2.x that couldn't deal with it. The only question remaining is... How best to partition a 68GB array... :) Thanks, Dave ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Walton Webmaster, Postmaster Nordic Entertainment Worldwide walton@nordicdms.com http://www.nordicdms.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-scsi" in the body of the message
