It's working since I'm having no trouble making a MS-DOS partition on it. My question is: How do I install it under NetBSD (v0.9)? From what I've understood from the FAQ, I should first disklabel it using a disktype from the /etc/disktab file. In the disktab file I have to define how big and wich partitions I should have on my HD. I can then use newfs to make the disk readable from NetBSD. Is this correct, seems rather complicated to me..... -- +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | You can find me (Jonas Nordin) at the following addresses | | ========================================================= | | Internet: d93jno@csd.uu.se | FIDO net: 2:205/232.0 | | jonas@uf.se | AMIGA net: 39:162/112.0 | +-----------------------------------------------------------+
