No, it didn't like the Seagate SCSI (?) that you don't have ;)

Normal...  you haven't installed on the drive before so there is no
disklabel info on the drive.   I'd worry if you DIDN'T see this
on your first install ;)

mMMmmm...  I  noticed this one too...  it  doesn't seem to be a problem...
any ideas anyone? (the message I got was  'fd0: recal failed ...')

BTW On this subject, my dist.floppies wouldn't mount -t pcfs....
a few other floppies I have don't either,  but some  do.
mread worked fine for the install once I chased down a copy ;)

err... have seen a posting on this one before but  can't remember what it
was.  Anybody?
